Sam Charlie and said that is overwhelming and that she is even scared to go to college . And then that high school is overwhelming too. On the last day of school Charlie say to the kid to the locker next to him and says I know. In the end Sam catches up with Charlie about what’s been going on like who Craig ( her ex boyfriend) broke up with her and how Patrick had been kissing Charlie. What I have learned in this book that many quiet and shy people have many secrets that they have and that there is nothing wrong about being a wallflower.

You are taught from young age to protect your body and mind from carnal desires and focus on other things that will benefit you on the long run. Obviously, times have changed, and not many people practice this anymore. We can see an example on shows on television about teen pregnancy, while these shows aren’t necessarily telling to go ahead and have children at young age, it might have negative impact on younger girls, almost like a unintentional role model. On the other hand, writer Jamaica Kincaid, demonstrates the In The Girl we see the other side of the coin, a mother that is so demanding and is always right, no matter the outcome, she is right, and things have to be done a certain way. I think a figure like this would not benefit

This is shown when she says "You will not be fit to be seen when you get there" when Elizabeth suggests going by foot to see Jane. She wants her daughters to marry well which will make their family look better. She is also happy about Lydia and Wickham's marriage, even though they did wrong by eloping together, and everyone knew they weren't really in love. Her attitude towards her ... ... middle of paper ... ...kham?s debts, lots of people worry about it and Mrs Bennet complains about her ?nerves?. It makes people think badly of the family and shames them.

Because I am female, I am expected to aspire to marriage. I am expected to make my life choices always keeping in mind that marriage is the most important. Now marriage can be a source of joy and love and mutual support but why do we teach girls to aspire to marriage and we don’t teach boys the same? We raise girls to see each other as competitors not for jobs or accomplishments, which I think can be a good thing, but for the attention of men. We teach girls that they cannot be sexual beings in the way that boys are.” These

A wise woman once said, “No matter where you’re from, every little child’s dream is valid.” Hanna Rosin in “The End of Men” does not seem to believe that men’s dreams can come true with the rise in women dominating all aspects of life. Rosin is worried of the rate in which men are falling behind in their education. Rosin beings the article by introducing the idea of sex selection in the in the 1970s. Rosin further then goes on to show that feminist of the 1980s were worried about the future of women in the society. Additionally instead of the vast majority of people choosing to have boys the trend changed to favour having more girls.

Feminist criticism can be defines as a having to deal with stereotypical representation of genders( Feminist Criticism). Within this story we can see stereotypes of women. Connie is a teenage girl who is only concerned with her friends and boy at this point within her life. At the same time she wants as much attention as she can, especially from the boys that she tries to make herself more attractive and appealing. However, going out of her way to make herself appealing to the guys is dangerous because she is still a young girl.

I am a social work major, and I would someday like to work with teenagers, which is why I am taking the time now to try to understand the reasoning for their foolish and dangerous choices. Why do teenage girls have such little respect for themselves? I am sure that each of these girls have her own theories and reasons for her actions. I believe the most obvious causes are; they were never taught that it was wrong, most guys treat girls with disrespect, and the fact that somebody wants them make them feel loved. Sadly enough, a girl having no respect for herself is not a new thing.

The Ray family's religious convictions required the females of the family to wear a dress, providing for the boys uneasiness when it came down to allowing her to play with them. Janisse, dress or not, felt capable of partaking in the sport. It is women like Ray, who will not take no for an answer, that has brought equal rights to their gender in sports, jobs and even around the house. America was founded, and has been very successful because of people like Ray, who want to leave their backgrounds or use them to learn from them in order to better their lives in the future; the kind of people that will do anything, whether it is leaving their homeland for a foreign soil in search of a new life and freedom, or tackling the boy with the football. Things have been changed, invented, and made better by people that will not take no for an answer.

Some women do choose this path because they want to, but the matter is that the stereotype should not exist at all, letting all men know that women are only good for those few reasons. But being a housewife and mother is not all fun and games: it's very hard work, though some men may believe it's not. In “Daystar” by Rita Doves, the speaker talks about how sh... ... middle of paper ... ... is the best solution to this sexist society and its stereotypes of women. Women have been disrespected all through history and just now, women are making their way into those activities that were probably created just for men. But men still stereotype women, believing that women are not strong enough/tough enough to do anything but housework and take care of children.

Young boys support hegemonic masculinity because it not only gives them power over women but it also gives them power over members of their own gender. If any girl tried to get into the boys hegemonic group they would either be rejected or accepted, but only in their terms: either being marginalized where a girl meets some of the requirements of hegemonic masculinity, or masculinized where boys totally dissociate a girl from being female, both of which depend on how athletic a girl is and how unemotional she is (McGuffey and Rich, p. 172). Though it seems like girls are making some type of progress is still doesn’t change or challenge the stereotypical gender norms. “Hegemonic masculinity is not only maintaining and defining itself, but it is also defining femininity” (McGuffey and Rich, p. 173). In Kane’s chapter femininity was more often suppressed and perceived as a bad thing.
