Pin-up girl

motherhood and the women’s domestic sphere. In order to contextualize this change in educational standards, I plan to draw brief examples from the 17th, but mostly the 18th century, regarding what subjects and methods of teaching were to be expected for girls that were allowed to attend school. In addition, should space allow, I’d like to also highlight some key women who helped to further the educational reformation, or more generally how female teachers and schoolmistresses did just that.…

them on the clothesline to dry” (Kincaid,1339). The text allows us to see the adult figure teaching the little girl how to become a woman. “This is how you set a table for tea, this is how you set a table for dinner; this is how you set the table for dinner with an important guest; this is how you set a table for breakfast” (Kincaid,1340). This girl, on and on, is being taught “how to set up a table” for different occasions and not once she is given the time to have a space to think or even…

the comment “like a girl.” People have heard this comment and immediately think of it as an insult. Always’ commercial uses emotional appeals to empower girls, make “like a girl” a positive statement, and show how great it is to be a girl. The commercial is also easy for young women and girls to relate to. The commercial begins with a teenage girl auditioning for a role and the message “What does it mean to be a girl?” on the screen. The director asks the girl to run like a girl. The teenager…

made me think about how girls all over the world are constantly trying to be seen as “perfect” and the lengths they go to better themselves. To find out more about how this applies to the real world, I decided to do my research report on this. My hypothesis is: “In today 's society woman are only judged by appearance, not by brains or personality”. I broke this down into three/four key questions primarily, What is causing today 's society to think like this? How are girls reacting to these…

television or in magazines because those girls get a lot of attention. I feel like some females think too much about what other people say or feel about them. Clothing is an eye catcher of beauty, different styles of clothing shapes your body structure differently. Some females don’t realize that when they are trying to dress like someone they see. Some women live for make-up. Beauty isn’t make-up, make-up makes a female look so fake (depending on the amount of make-up that is being used) and it…

As the girl got older she started to realize the truth behind adoption. When she was younger she thought that kids got picked out in some sort of order. Maybe based on the time they got there, their birthdays, or even their heights. When she hit ten years old, she found out it was a lot more evil than that. The adoption process was almost like creating a kid that you want. You could pick out the age, the skills, and even the way they looked. This is where the girl felt her problems came into…

I was very put off by the one ad in the compilation that had the little girl doing all sorts of domestic activities in her play house and talking about her growing her dreams there. To act as if this little girl’s dream in life was limited to doing laundry and decorating a house made me feel quite bitter because there was probably…

To be honest, it wasn’t just those directly around me either. Television suddenly became a dangerous minefield, attacking me without mercy.…
