Sex linkage

are not pay well as the males are. Title IX is important to high school and college in sports and academics. Title IX was created in the 1970s by Congress. Title IX is a Federal law that states; "No person in the United States shall be based on sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance." So, in other words, boys and girls should be equal, yet it is a known…

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…

Differences between the genders. Segregated, divergent and opposite; differences between males and females. In “Saints, Scholars and Schizophrenics” Nancy Scheper- Hughes, describes the unique differences among females and males in rural Ireland. The difference in genders can be seen across each and every culture. However, each culture has their own way of formulating particular gender ideologies. In rural Ireland, Scheper- Hughes allows us to gain insight on the gender differences within rural…

There are some differences between sex and gender. Sex is considered a fact because of biology. Gender is the interpretation of that fact and “is the way society creates, patterns, and rewards our understanding of femininity and masculinity”( Shaw and Lee 116). It is more complicated than these definitions though, because there in more than just the male or female sex, hence intersex. 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…

In the introduction, I stated my predictions, that the greater number of hookups a woman engages in decreases their self-esteem, while men who engaged in more hookups with different partners increase their self-esteem. I conclude that the results of my data did not find a significant difference. The findings of the current study are similar to the findings of Walsh (1991) that men had more sexual partners than women. In the current study, the results found similar findings that males had more…

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…

For my human sexuality class, I was to conduct a sexual interview with an individual focusing on sexuality. We were to ask questions focusing on the individual’s attitudes and feelings towards sexuality and any misconceptions they may have held about sexuality. This activity also allowed the interviewer to become aware of their own feelings and attitudes about sexuality during the interview. I intentionally wanted to conduct this interview with a male, because asking questions around sexuality…
