Animals and the Environment Specisism says that all humans are better than animals. There are two types of theorists when it comes to animal welfare: traditionalists and abolitionists. The arguments for animal welfare is that they provide food and there is no pain in going through with animal welfare. The only persons who don’t benefit from animal welfare are vegans and vegetarians because they don’t eat any type of meat. Another argument for animal welfare is experimentation. Specifically,…

children’s interests is capable of doing: suffocating the freedom of a person to take pleasure in what they want. Children should not have to feel frustrated that they cannot play with a toy simply because that toy is not for their sex.

Racist Halloween costumes and white people with dreadlocks mock other cultures and turn people into a neat little commodity they can buy.

With the new fad of media and their interest in people’s social lives, you are thrown into a world that is changing. You see things such as people coming out as agender, cassgender, or even people coming out as being genderqueer. Now most people don’t know what these terms mean, or even know they exist. There isn’t much about the LGBTQ+ community that is expressed in everyday life. But now more people are discovering who they are, and are even changing how they identify. Sometimes, it’s with…
