“It’s hard to still have hope,” Meleny said as she looked at her husband Stephen. It was a gloomy day, the ground was wet and the air moist from the downpour just hours before. The search party was still hunting through debris and deep snow, searching for the small boy who had gone missing days before. The family was still in shock, after their car slid out of control while gliding over a sheet of black ice. Still having flashbacks, Mr. and Mrs. O’Brien would never forget the events of that…

women or man, might not always work vice versa (Gray, 143). For instance, a common scenario would be a women blaming a man for ignoring her, after she rolled her eyes at him, when really he simply just didn’t understand her non-verbal cues (Legato, 67). This is not the man’s fault, since this is how his brain is wired, however, women who use verbal cues or gestures often when conversing, will often not realize this and blame the man himself. Another example would be a women offering help to a…

But how is it that the toys children play with enforce gender roles? The toys marketed to children have hidden aspects, demonstrating how we expect children to behave “based on norms, or…

Traditional gender roles permeate every aspect of society, dictating how we sit, eat, bath, dress, smile, and walk. Thus, it is only reasonable to assume that gender, and the roles ascribed to each group within the binary, will also impact the political nature of an individual. Differences in socialization, education, experience, and demeanor have ultimately developed a dichotomy between male and female legislators. The dualistic terms in which we assign traits (e.g. classifying one…

brain, on average, has a limbic system that is larger than a man’s. This portion of the brain controls things such as mood and instincts. Due to this, it can be concluded that men are in fact less emotional than women. In addition to this, should a man be outwardly expressive about his emotions, he faces being scrutinized by those around him. In the article “Gender Roles in Society”, Grace Carney-Staff uses the examples of “sissy” and “gay” in relation to insulting words used to reference men…

that these names applied to them. Ultimately, these horrendous names promote that a "man" should never act like a woman and there is no way that a woman can even be evaluated on the same terms as a man. Therefore, throughout my boyhood my gender identity has been formed by the media, peers, and family. Television actively engrained many archetypes and expectations of men into my brain at young age.…

On display in the Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art are two works painted within about a decade of each other. At first glance, they seem to have little in common other than the fact that they each depict four human beings. One would not expect to be able to draw a meaningful commonality between the two based solely on this, and if the viewers make their observation merely on the surface level of the works, they will not. However, the existence of these two sets of people, the essence of humanity…
