Gender socialization is the social construction of female and male behavior. With gender socialization there becomes gender inequality, which is the unequal treatment of individuals by others constructed by their gender. Gender socialization happens unnoticeably and connects to gender inequality. Gender socialization maintains and manipulates gender inequality in different ways. Three instances of gender socialization I observed were at work by a member, by my mom at my papa’s, and at my…

left our hearts warm and stars like Julia Roberts with her clumsy relatability and Richard Grere with his suave demeanor. The ‘90s also brought Kathy Maio, feminist film critic. Maio’s 1991 book Popcorn and Sexual Politics is a collection of analysis of popular ‘90s films—especially Romantic Comedies. Popcorn and Sexual Politics aims to examine the role and portrayal of women on screen. Maio dissects her chosen films to the bone and trys to expose meanings and cultural undertones and how they…

The Details to Life Photos contain a variety of details which create breathtaking images. From the vivid colors, visual metaphors, to the arrangement of the picture, details create images and bring them to life. This makes it easier to pull details from the image and allows the audience to visualize and find emotion from a simple picture. When using these elements, it is possible to set the tone and meaning behind the picture. Companies take advantage of this opportunity to catch their…

According to the FDA, food companies are allowed to say that their food products contains 0 grams of trans fat, as long as one serving contains less than .50 grams of trans fat. However, food companies should not be allowed to hide trans fats like these, as they are unhealthy for our bodies and health. As a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association Andrea Giancoli states it “Trans fats raise your bad cholesterol just like saturated fats, but they also increase inflammation and lower the…

to cook food on stoves, to make ice in freezers, and to light our homes. We use energy for everything! Generating energy means converting energy from one form into another. For example, a popcorn machine changes electrical energy to thermal energy, which heats the popcorn. The heat causes the popcorn to pop. You may observe popping corn has mechanical energy. It overflows the pot and falls into the bottom of the machine. The popping corn also uses…

the smallest things can make a big impact on our environment. I love to watch movies and eat popcorn with my family and friends. During just one bowl of popcorn and one movie, I am using so much energy. The television, the microwave, and the lights to access the popcorn are up and running. I care about the environment, therefore, to conserve this energy I only turn on the television after I make the popcorn. As an outdoorsman, I can conserve more energy by making sure the dishwasher is full…

Something I have always enjoyed doing is helping people. I love the feeling that it gives me and the thought that I have just helped better someone’s life. Now as a young boy, I was often asked, what are you going to be? I never realized it then, but I have realized it now, my father. He is the reason why I want to do what I want to do, which is to become a doctor. It seems like every week I hear someone, whether it’s at a store or at the YMCA, say you 're the doctor 's son, and I listen to them…

They can eat the tiny parts of popcorn stuck there, increasing your risk of tooth decay and gum disease. But there’s always a chance at eating an unpopped kernel, which is so hard that it can damage your teeth. As you can…

cost of food and snacks. The last time I went to the movies, a small popcorn was five dollars, a small drink was three dollars, and all of the candy was two dollars. A full movie experience for a family can run close to 100 dollars. In contrast, a movie at home can be very cheap or even free. Redbox allows a person to rent a movie for a dollar, which is a fraction of the cost of a movie theater ticket. A box of ten bags of popcorn usually cost around three dollars. At the dollar store, any candy…

during breaks I would find myself wanting lunch at that time even if I was not hungry. Another example would be that when growing up whenever we would watch a movie my mom would make popcorn. After a while I just became to expect popcorn whenever I watched any movie. The movie would be the UCS and receiving the popcorn was the CR. As it is simple to become classically conditioned, it is also quite simple to classically condition someone else- whether they realize it or…
