In the third stanza, we see that the girlchild is growing up. Not only has she been told how to look her whole life now it is being voiced how to behave. The speaker does not express who is giving her this guidance, so we can only assume it is either he family, classmates or other adults, maybe even strangers. “She was advised to play coy, / exhorted to come on hearty, / exercise, diet, smile and wheedle” (line 12, 12 and 14). In other terms, it is interpreted as, to be shy, maybe she tries to…

The two brothers, Ashton and Jude, are 7 and 4 years old while Priscilla's older sister is 2 years old. The new baby girl rounds out the family beautifully. The baby's nursery was done in light pink, creams and white in a shabby chic style that the parents love. They wanted a nursery that was pretty and feminine, so I chose…

On the day that Alia had died, she was already having a pretty shitty day. To begin with, she had missed the airing of her favourite show as she was too occupied with studying for an exam - which she had only just discovered she'd failed.

The brunette tucked a strand of stray hair behind her ear, as her eyes narrowed on the words printed on what seemed to be the millionth flashcard. The hastily scribbled terms…

“No.” “Yes. I want to go I want to please it would be a wonderful experience and a free home. “No.” there they will put us off as freaks and make us look like we're weirdos. “Well we kinda are we are freaks we have two heads Dot.” “So were still normal we can talk, walk, breathe, and do all the same things normal people do. “What if Elsa finds out it was us who killed mother, thats what she is going to use against us.” “ I know what you girls did you stabbed your mother and then stabbed…

to toddler dolls. Some of these baby dolls were very realistic and came with packs of diapers, bottles, toys, and also had separate options of purchasing strollers, carriers, and cribs. I noticed that a majority of the baby dolls were girls and wore pink. Next to this area of baby dolls were the pretend house toys that consisted of play kitchens, cooking supplies, pretend food, cleaning supplies, and shopping carts.

landed in the news for its T-shirt “I'm too pretty to do homework, so my brother has to do it for me.” I believe that the shirt degrades and ruins the image of girls. But it's not just JCPenney that has released sexist clothing like this. Target has also recently released a women's t-shirt that says ‘Trophy’ across the chest.
