Sex trade

In “The Necklace” by Guy de Maupassant, Mathilde's desires are "feminine," because what most interests her is attracting male attention. Throughout the story, Mathilde shows greediness. Her greed is not the only thing that she desires. Mathilde was being greedy because she wanted to get the men’s attention by looking attractive, beautiful, and elegant. Mathilde wanted to do more than just getting men’s attention; she wanted to seduce them. Mathilde felt like she needed to be wanted. She bought…

a detention if one was caught using it. I was taught that your sexuality did not make you less of a human. This reality was shattered for me, however in middle school. Middle school is where we started to read the news and began to learn that same-sex marriage was not legal in throughout America. This perplexed me, how could two people not be able to marry, if we’ve been taught that they are the same as everyone else? My understanding of sexuality was socially constructed from the teachings that…

Feminism in Sports Society has always tried to enforce social control in the world. This constant hunt for control in society’s normative compliance has transitioned into the world of sports. Professional sports have been in our country for close to one hundred years; while various sports have progressed at their own pace, industrialization has progressed at even a faster rate. Some of America’s most loved sports such as basketball, football, and boxing have endured the test of stabilization…

problem, they were abhorred in society, and in many cases, executed at birth. More so, such executions were not limited to infants, but adults were at risk as well (Adroutsos). Ultimately, throughout all phases of Roman antiquity, the notion of a third sex, such as hermaphrodites, defied…

Long ago, when girls stayed home and helped their mothers at home, and boys would follow their dads to work, a stigma was made that greatly separated the two genders. As time passed, a thick line was drawn in between the genders and everyday objects, toys and activities would be placed on one side of the line. Sports were placed on the male’s side. So when more time passed, some objects were placed on different sides due to “rebellious children”, according to older generations, so more girls…

perspectives when examining this topic, but an ethical view is one of the most important because many people question whether or not it is acceptable for the government to interfere with such personal matters. Due to the policy there are distorted sex ratios, a large elderly population, violations of women’s rights, and practices that are harmful to women’s health. Since the implementation of the one-child policy, China has experienced…

Doing this will make will make whatever society your in a better one. Having everyone involved in the society equally creates a socially strong economic society. Society shouldn’t see females as the weaker sex just because its been like that since the dawn of time. Females have evolved to be independent strong minded individuals, that have carried out to take care of themselves, even after society pushes them away. Equality is a great thing and society should…

I am currently in a group for Children’s media and the academic journal that I found was on the Sexualization of girls. This journal went over how sexualization is related to objectification because a lot of times men in society will see females as objects for them to rule over. “women and girls are both sexualized, via their tight clothing and makeup, and objectified, portrayed as existing for men 's pleasure and lacking in their own agency. There is not a parallel trend in which boys are often…

slowly gaining equality but still has a long way to come. You guessed it, sports. There has been a law that has gone into effect for athletics and education called Title IX. This act states that, “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of 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.” Essentially this means that men and women cannot be discriminated…

The ad we chose to bust comes from Victoria’s Secret, a company that is known for their marketing strategy of using attractive female models and calling them angels to sell their product. The females they chose to represent their brand are never anything less than tall, skinny, physically fit, able-bodied, young, and flirtatious with big breast and white or at the very least light-skinned. Accompanied by the message of perfect body, this ad communicates the message of what a person is expected…
