The Gay Science

As shown in the essay, in section of the three metamorphoses by Nietzsche thus spoke Zarathustra, the spirit are represent by a camel, a lion and a childIn my discussion, I chose to write about one of the most popular books of Nietzsche's, thus spoke Zarathustra by the time of the nineteenth century. The book entitled on the topic of the three metamorphoses. Where the spirit of the three metamorphoses is a camel, a lion, and a child. Nietzsche's main reason for writing on the three metamorphoses is to describe the three stages of life that each individual should go through to become a man. In other words, the first stage is a camel who is a believer and a follower of God. After, the second stage is a lion who is master of his own rules and not scared of saying no. Eventually, the third stage is a child who is a creator of new values of knowledge. Through all my explanation, I will argue about several things in my paragraphs which are about their definitions, their symbols, and their transformations. In the opinion of Nietzsche, the very first step that a person should take to become a man is a camel. Also, he is just the only spirit between the three metamorphoses who has the strength to carry a heavy weight of burdens that God told him to have it. For example: "What is difficult, O heroes, ask the spirit that bear much, that I may take upon myself and exult in my strength?"(32). Additionally, when an individual becomes same as a camel, he actually doesn't follow their own…

Zarathustra told the “higher men”, “You strange higher men, how well I like you now since you have become gay again. Verily, you have all blossomed; it seems to me such flowers as you are require new festivals, a little brave nonsense, some divine service and ass festival, some old gay fool of a Zarathustra, a roaring wind that blows your souls bright.” He shares that they have changed into something better than what they would when they have found Zarathustra. Even though Zarathustra does not…

or prosperity may be different; however, the origin of this success is the same. The people who suffer are able to use that suffering to produce better outcomes and experiences. In the absence of suffering, there are no lessons to be learned and no reason to reflect on alternatives. To suffer does not only mean to experience physical pain, but it can also mean to experience emotional pain or be extremely displeased of a current situation. To suffer is to be discontent, and one must do anything…

Even using Brokeback Mountain as a Hollywood film example of how sexuality is shown in the media, Rodger Streitmatter’s, “From Perverts to Fab Five: The Media’s Changing Depiction of Gay Men and Lesbians”, states, “In a country that makes not just a virtue but a fetish of rugged individualism-and set against the most identified virtue, Brokeback Mountain strikes a deep and haunting chord, showcasing the story of people who for no good reason are not allowed to love their lives as they would.…

and across the world. The idea of what defines a marriage has really heated up during the 20th century. In the late 60’s there was some scuttles with the police and gay areas in Ontario and New York. These started to lay a foundation down of what right a government has to interfere with a group of people that are causing no harm Through the 70 's the HIV/AIDS crisis came unfolding many ideas about the gay community. Before gay groups lived on the margins of cities not much interacting with the…

I thought this test was a lot different than the other ones; it made me feel like the researchers were almost setting us up to come out as biased against Gay people. Associating negative words with homosexuality is a way of skewing the results, in my opinion. I am proud of the results I got because I do not know very many gay or lesbian people and I never really grew up having any friends come out. I can count the number of gay people I personally know on one hand. I learned from this that if…

One of the first books to explore activism within the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender community is Sexual Politics, Sexual Community (1983) by John D’Emilio.

He discusses Ernestine Eckstein, a black lesbian woman, was involved in the NAACP during college at Indiana University, the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) in New York City, and the New York chapter of the…

Bullying targeted towards the youth in the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgendered (LGBT) community is a serious problem that is often overlooked.

LGBT youth also endure…

Roger Spottiswoodes’ powerful film And the Band Played On is one that delves into the serious issues of its time regarding a new, unknown disease, which is eventually labeled as Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). The film was successful in suppressing the stereotype that AIDS is strictly a gay man’s disease by presenting a new “truth about AIDS.” Through the use of scientific evidence and extensive research, the film was able to prove that AIDS is a disease which can be transmitted…
