Regardless, her poor emotional state is proven through many lines in this lai, especially when she tells the knight “I grant you my love and my body” (115). She has finally come up with a method to “get away” from her husband in this decision. Throughout the rest of the story it is not once said that the wife came to love her new husband or her family, on the contrary, she does not seem happy in the following scenes. However, being afraid of her husband and his emotional violence, it is rational that she would try to find safety with someone else, even if that means giving away her “love,”—likely the appearance of such rather than actual love—and her

Wealth and property feature heavily in the wife’s portrayal of marriage and along with the issue of her independence is responsible for many of her marital conflicts. The first three husbands "riche and olde" were married each for "hir land and hir tresoor" then discarded as the Wife looks for other prospects. When one of these husbands tries to restrict the Wife’s spending she refuses to let him be both "maister of my body and of my good" so refuses sexual favours in return for her freedom as she will not become a mere possession. She generalizes that women "love no man that taketh or keepth charge" suggesting an element of independence and individualism in 14th century marriage. The wife resents being controlled; she

Two artists called Sue and Johnsy share an apartment in a community for artists, which gets invaded by a deadly and vindictive disease that spreads and kills many of the members in their community. Johnsy gets infected, gives up any hope of survival, and pins her destiny to one remaining leaf on a vine. A physician tells Sue, Johnsy’s best friend, that her best friend’s chance of survival is slim to none unless she can find something to hope for. After a violent storm, Johnsy looks out and sees the last leaf still intact on the vine. Johnsy decides she still wants to live, and she figures there must be a reason that the leaf she pinned her destiny on did not drop off, even during a storm. Johnsy later finds out that a kind old man called Mr.

Alicia’s survival during the Holocaust depended on her ability to prevent her emotions and age from restraining her. For instance, when her mother was shot by the Schutzstaffel, Alicia “wished at that moment to be dead by her [mother’s] side. But somehow [Alicia’s] legs carried [her] away” (Appleman-Jurman 221). Alicia’s body acted independently of her mind, revealing that her spirits do not have the power to influence her physical body. Because eyes are frequently associated with one’s soul and spirits, not including eyes in the figure represents the lack of power the spirits have. Thus, the empty eye sockets represent Alicia’s refusal to allow her emotions to influence her decisions. Furthermore, when the head of Brecha, the group that smuggles

Being entirely honest with my audience, my husband is typically the bill payer. He works, therefore, literally pays the bills, and is also the one in our home who attentively sits down and balances the checkbook, gets online and pays our bills. Because of the importance of this task, I have volunteered to help sometimes, however he insists. Instead, my action file is going to be the enormous paperwork that goes with homeschooling, like grading papers. Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoy homeschooling, but grading papers is a far cry from entertainment. Currently, all papers from the day are swiftly set on top of our Westie's crate for me to grade at night; while I catch up any left-over work in the silver mesh tray (I'm getting there).

Secondly, although one may have a good honesty with the individual they are betrothed to without honesty with the self, one can never truly develop and keep cognizant the purpose of the wedlock in question, due to inner turmoil and strife. Firstly, this can been seen in the first marriage that Janie has as exemplified by the following, “She knew now that marriage did not make love. Janie’s first dream was dead,so she became a woman.” (Hurston. 25) This shows denial of self as she married solely due to the societal pressure and not because she knew herself well enough to know that she truly had a spiritual connection with Logan Killiks. This means that she married falsely. This is ultimately fatal to the marriage because in not knowing herself, how could Janie truly know how to love another human being with every fiber of herself?

I see her on that long road under the trees, creeping along, and when a carriage comes she hides under the blackberry vines” (318). Women in this time period were all experiencing this kind of control in their marriages. Men have to stay over the women and it was expected for the women to do as they were

Ernest Hemingway’s Hills Like White Elephant is about a couple, the American and a female named Jig debating about an operation Jig should have. Throughout the story, Jig is distant, the American is rational. Although the story never explicitly states what it is that the couple is arguing, if you really think about it, you’d realize that the tough situation where they are trying to make a decision, keeping their unborn child or having an abortion based on several different suggestions described. The reader must interpret their dialogue and body language to infer their backgrounds and their attitudes with respect to the situation at hand, and their attitudes toward one another. What the American thinks is best solution to their pregnancy,

In this time period, women were viewed as inferior, less-intelligent creatures that should just succumb to men whenever the men told them to do something. The narrator of the story was just like any other women of this time period: willingly repressed. She was nameless—she was addressed only by “my darling”, “little girl” or other demeaning phrases, by her husband. This was the first sign of repression. Throughout the story, she commented on how much her husband loved her, but he tried to control her every action. She thought that he knew what was wrong with her and what was best for her; it was not questioned because he was a physician, and a male. She said that he was “very careful and loving, and hardly lets me stir without special direction” (Gilman). She was pure, just like in the cult of womanhood. She let him control her, to be the governing body over her, and she just did as he said. This then led to her submissiveness, another aspect of the cult of womanhood. Some things that she said showed this. In the beginning, she said that “John laughs at me, of course, but one expects that in marriage” and that “if a physician of high standing, and one's own husband, assures friends and relatives that there is really nothing the matter with one but temporary nervous depression—a slight hysterical tendency—what is one to do?” (Gilman). Though she openly stated how she disagreed

In page 2 paragraph 2 line 5, it says, "She said it over and over under her breath: "free, free, free!"". It puts the thought in the readers mind that marriage was an imprisonment to the wives. The question does arise, why not leave if they felt so trapped and chained to their husbands?

Fresh water is needed to sustain life for humans, animals, and plant life. Desalination plants should be built to aid in providing this necessary resource. According to the article entitled “A Source of Freshwater” the process of water desalination has been around since the time of Aristotle in 320 BCE. Also, desalination plants are inexpensive. Next, the plant will make up to 56 million gallons of fresh water each day. There for, 14% of people will lack fresh water by 2025. Finally desalination is the solution for the future. Some may say that the plants are too costly to build or bad for the environment, but it is well worth the costs and steps could be taken to protect ensure safety. In conclusion, water desalination plants should be built

Gender and technology has become a very important factor within today’s society, as it reflects upon the overlaps between gender, digital technologies and democracy. Technology has presented both genders in provocative ways that tends to lead to sexual harassment and then for political action to end gender based violence. This then becomes essential and fundamental to the working of and towards a healthy democracy. The term Cyberfeminism has been developed throughout the previous years as feminists who are interested in exploiting with technologies, such as the Internet and cyber-space think it is a vehicle of freedom from the dissolution of sex and gender. An example of online digital media that illustrates the case of gender of Cyberfeminism is the online media campaign called “Free The Nipple.” This essay will firstly describe this cyberfeminism campaign and how it is relevant towards gender and technology. Then it will examine how digital media can be used as a form of resistance against stereotypes and ideological assumptions in relation to the role of women in contemporary society. Thus the difference between men and women become relevant to these media phenomena and is of importance for gender patterns when considering it in relation to the Internet. (Bimber, 3)
