Working out is very popular in college. At the University of Miami’s weight room, I observed that even though most male students who didn’t work out in high school students are much more likely to work in college, especially if they are in a fraternity. Males took up a majority of the gym and it seems almost all of them were in fraternities because they wore shirts that represented their organizations. All the women were dressed in tight clothing and some had put makeup on and done their hair.…

Toys “R’nt” Us Most children have very personal relationships with their dolls. They take them everywhere and often idolize them. The population of American children are ethnically diverse, yet the toy industry lacks proper representation of the different ethnicities and races that make up their consumers. After visiting the Toys “R” Us in Culver City, I saw first hand how the majority of the dolls did not properly represent the consumers of that particular store. American retail stores like…

Also, both culture and society gives meaning to sex and that “male or female is already gendered” ( Shaw and Lee…

THOUGH IT SEEMS INTUITIVE TO ASSUME AN EITHER STRICTLY FEMINIST OR ANTI-FEMINIST READING WHEN CONSIDERING EVE, THIS BINARY SYSTEM DOES NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT HOW BOTH READINGS IN FACT REINFORCE ONE ANOTHER Eve’s body is a particularly salient way in which her place in the gender hierarchy is solidified. This is established from the moment the characters are introduced in Book IV: Shee as a vail down to the slender waste Her unadorned golden tresses wore Disheveld, but in wanton ringlets wav 'd…

Eritrea is a small country located in East-Africa. It is usually confused with Ethiopia, a fatal mistake to make, as Eritreans did fight Ethiopians for their independence. They are very patriotic people who value culture. Their survival was only possible due to their strong idealistic principles. Everything from shopping at a mall, to visiting the Red Sea has norms and values that seem rather strange, but the strangest of them all is their gniddew traditions. For these people, gniddews symbolise…

With the rich burgundy accented velvet carpet with hues of emerald coloured shapes that masked the entire floor, where daily would performed, to the artificial LED light that brightened the room, and minimalistic simplistic of the furniture is, this was place where things of all matter where celebrated, expressed, and remembered. Peace, serene, and holy those are some of the few words that come into my mind when I think of the Mosque. Ever since I was a child, I could remember the great…

The idea of objectification in terms of sales is related back to several mindsets. Firstly, sex is shocking. To see someone so…
