Women are most likely discriminated by employment, salaries, increased exposure to sexual harassment, and many more things. By American parenting according to modern day values rather than old fashion values, children will become more successful adults. Gender equality gives each gender the ability to do something based on their skill alone and not by gender. If every girl was taught about gender equality there could be more girls who become adults and strive for something. By having more women…

Call me old fashioned, but I love when my husband opens the door for me or gives me his jacket when I’m cold. To me, this signals his affection for me and a desire for my well being. He does it because it honors me and makes me feel special. Flowers are also a big hit with me. Leon can be a real charmer, and I soak it up like a plant soaks up water on a hot day. Recently, I had the opportunity of watching the movie “Old Fashioned”. It’s about a couple that falls in love. During their courtship,…

One foot rooted in urban Puerto Rican heritage and the other having been later immersed in the Southern black experience as an adult, I have learned to merge the conceivably disparate cultures of my family. Each afforded me a unique point of view, developing the self-assurance that has empowered me to succeed in the face of adversity.

There isn 't much exchange in the middle of new and old for other auto sound gear, yet there is by all accounts a genuine energy for more established or custom auto sounds. For those who have been around sufficiently long to have encountered both new and old, we are going to impart some insight on the subject and let you…

Coming to a Realization The best poems always bring up the good old times and past lovers. Artists often intertwine the two concepts in order to form beautiful narratives and thought provoking images. This is precisely what John Hollander has done with his poem, “An Old-Fashioned Song.” Throughout the 21-line poem, Hollander takes the reader on a melancholy trip that begins as a sad realization that there are no more walks through the woods, to a nostalgic story about a magical relationship…

Emily Dickinson’s “Eden is that Old-fashioned House” is a very short, yet interesting poem. This poem alone describes Dickinson’s poetry style in great detail. It’s calm and mild, yet relatively depressing and sad. Dickinson talks about how the home is not the house itself, but the people around it. She refers to the Garden of Eden, and how that was the first “home” ever. She compares it to the home she lives in now, and how it as has been around in her family for a long time. The title “Eden…

Political leadership guided the North and South landscape, but the military leadership guided the battlefield. The Civil War was a modern war compared to the Napoleonic wars and for the South; Lee is seen by some scholars as a leader out of touch with modern warfare while other generals such as those from the Union were waging a modern style of warfare. In the article, An Old-Fashioned Soldier in a Modern War?: Robert E. Lee as Confederate General, Gary Gallagher takes a historiographical…

Two Old-Fashioned Boys Imagine a fourteen year old boy left in charge of his entire home. Imagine a boy saving money for two years to earn fifty dollars in the Great Depression. Well, these two boys are fictional characters from books. Travis, from Old Yeller by Fred Gipson, was left in charge of his home for over three months. He fell in love with a willy, yellow dog. Billy, from Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls, spent two years saving for a pair of raccoon hunting hounds. He walked…

Going Back to the Basics Many people today listen to songs like Grandpa Tell Me ´Bout the Good Old Days by the Judds and dream of a time when life was simpler, when relationships were made a priority, and there was a social structure that wasn 't a minefield to navigate. In recent years, women in particular have started conversations about the boorishness of their dates and men in general.
