Self- fulfilling prophecies can influence how one may form their perception of another, which in turn causes one to create a stereotype of a people group that the induvial belongs to (Spielman, 2014). For example, at the beginning of a new school year a teacher assumes that a particular female student with blonde hair in her class will be uneducated. In return the teacher gives that particular student negative attention, in results causing a poor academic performance from the student. Therefore, the teacher will believe that the female student with blonde hair is uneducated. Due to the negative attention giving to this student, the student performed poorly academically, not because the student presented as a blond hair female. Also, due to this poor academic performance of the blond headed female this teacher will now construct a stereotype. This stereotype will state that, all females with blond hair are uneducated from the assumption gathered of one student who filled the self- fulfilling prophecy of the teacher. Another way that stereotypes can influence the social world, is through stereotypes that form into prejudice feelings. Prejudice is an unjustified negative attitude towards someone due to the dissimilarities one may have compared to another and the social group that they belong to. Prejudices feelings are often passed down from…

    Today is the fated day that shall be marked down in history to be remembered in celebrations and mirth or to be fearfully remembered by our enemies in both terror and awe. Today is that fated day, but Fiera has laid three sorry looking fools at my feet, and only one who shows some promise to truly being a fated hero. The first was a man, summoned naked and crawling, stinking like a lowly peasant, his unkempt hair and body only accentuating his squalor-like conditions. He refused to give his…

Bordo stated that the body is made, “through table manners, toilet habits, through seemingly trivial routines, rules and practices,” (Bordo, 2014, pg.473). Women are made to constantly feel inadequate in both physical and emotional aspects.

    I walk up the stairs into the living part of the house. The whole bottom part of the house is dedicated to meetings and special occasions. Once up the stairs my room is the 4th door on the left. I enter my room to see my dress for the evening's meeting already laid out on my bed. It’s as I had expected it to be, a monstrosity. It’s a long sleeve floor length forest green dress. I hate it. If a life threatening situation were to occur at the meeting I would have no chance at getting away or…

    Beyond the Forest I rolled out of bed and yawned. I decided to go horseback riding so I could see the morning sunrise. I threw on some dark green riding clothes (because that’s my favorite color) and ran out the door. I walked the familiar path and I was almost at the stable when I heard footsteps making their way toward me. Without turning around I yelled, “Adrian I know you 're behind me!” The footsteps stopped, I heard a swish and before I could blink, Adrian was upside down hanging…

    Many will say that having good hair means for it to be “razor-thin blond hair” as Cepeda stated “people in Santo Domingo call it bueno.” However, for a type of hair to be defined as being good, it’s only based upon the interpretation of the beholder. Due to the fact that as we can sense, Cepeda is not a “razor-thin blond hair” woman; instead she most likely has curly hair. Which she describes it as “ripple like the water in Boca Chica,” As curly hair has lots of endless curves, like the water in…
