Being in a friendship with a male or female may quite grueling. In my friendships, some awkward situations bring out divergent characteristics in my male and my female friend. Although the friendship I have with my male friend Patrick is much more coquettish than the friendship with my female friend Patricia, the friendship I have with my female friend is much more competitive and more dramatic to endure.
The friendship I have with my male friend Patrick is much more coquettish than the friendship I have with my female friend Patricia. One day, Patrick and I went on a movie date to watch the Conjuring, a horror movie. During the movie, I became petrified. I put my hands over my face and yelped out, "Oh my goodness." I almost urinated on myself. In response to me screaming, Patrick clutched my hand and said, "Everything is going to be alright beautiful, it's just a movie." Happily, I said, "Aw, thanks boo, I feel safe now." He then kissed my hand and said anything for you. With a huge smile on my face, I continued to watch the extremely scary movie with no worries. On the other hand, a week later, I watched the same movie with my female friend Patricia. The level of flirtatiousness was not so high this time. As we were watching the movie, I became terrified and started yelling as I did the week before. Instead of Patricia comforting me with a hug or a hand holding, she insulted me. She said, "Quit being a coward, this movie is not real." I looked Patricia upside her head, and I rolled my eyes at her twice. I continued to watch the movie uncomfortably. When the most horrifying parts came on, I covered my eyes with my hands. I decided that next time Patricia and I attended a movie together, we would go and watch something that invo...

...und and punched Patricia in her eye. In response to my punch, she ripped the gum along with a handful of my hair out of my head. Next thing I knew, Patricia and I were in a brutal brawl. After the fight, I yelled at her to get out of my house. She left my house screaming, "Ha, ugly, look at that huge bald spot in the middle of your head." I aggressively slammed the door behind her. Obviously, I never sat within ten yards of that deranged foolish female again.
Being friends with different sexes has been an intriguing experience for me. Furthermore, I have learned that I take pleasure in being friends with males more than females. Male friends are less dramatic and easier to get along with than female friends. Female friends are jealous, sneaky, and conniving. Now that I have moved to San Marcos, I avoid creating any special friendship bonds with females I encounter.
Jewish home. Zionism, a movement which came about very recently in Jewish history, pushed on with power through the early twentieth century fueled by the past. As Jewish identity was stretched thin between geographical association and religious affiliation, Jews found themselves struggling for national recognition. Louis Brandeis, in A Call to the Educated Jew said “the glorious past can really live only if it becomes the mirror of a glorious future; and to this end the Jewish home in Palestine is
which it adheres to the tenets of the religion it claims as its support? Indeed there is such a relationship, and upon closer examination, we will not only see that political agendas that faithfully adhere to the tenets of a proposed religious affiliation tend to be successful, but we will also see why this is the case. We will then consider how this knowledge can be used today to address current instances of oppressive regimes. First, however, let us examine why it is at all desirable for a political

Shakespeare, it would seem, "encompasses more and preaches less than most authors, hence the centuries-old controversy over his religious affiliation, political views, and sexual preferences" (Lenz 4). His attitude toward women are equally complex and demand as much examination. As we begin to study the female characters, we must overlook the male superiority that patriarchal misogyny

Islamic art may be confusing to some. It not only describes the art created specifically in the service of , but it also characterizes secular art produced in lands under Islamic rule or influence, whatever the artist’s or the patron’s religious affiliation. The term suggests an art unified in style and purpose, and indeed there are certain common features that distinguish the arts of all Islamic lands.”1 Although this is a highly dynamic art, which is often marked by strong regional characteristics

addition to his way of responding by yelling in an excited manner. His clothing is made up of black and white, making it seem as if he is a priest. His appearance is a little messy due to his unkempt hair and facial hair. In relation to his religious affiliations, he carries a bible and wears a large rosary at all times. However, in this portrayal, he is often times uncomfortable and doesn’t act his age. In the film version of the play, Tartuffe is eerie and, for the most part, calm. His is dressed in

Religious affiliation will be topically explored by: adherence, in adherence, ceremonialism and the place of the religious dimension in human history. Religion is explicated as a ‘unified system of beliefs and practices relative to sacred things’ (Durkheim [1912] 1995). Religious affiliation is a dynamic, multifaceted component of identity and human experience, often intertwined with present social
a predominant, necessary component and driving force of human existence and progression. The primary catalyst for such conflict is one’s national identity, and the clashing cultural disparities it produces between people with different national affiliations. Presently, many attempt to neglect their historical backgrounds in order to avert disputes and conflicts. The fact remains however, that one cannot flee from his or her national identity, no matter how ardently they attempt to mask it or how passionately
