After reading Swift's "Modest Proposal", I have to say I am completely appalled, disturbed, and offended of considering to consume a little baby to solve the nation's problems. With this intention, I am not an advocate of Mr. Swift's suggestion, considering all the pain my child and I have experienced; including our connection, and love that we have shared it breaks my tender heart that there might be people who would be willing to take a baby's life to save their selfish motives, only because life is beginning to get troublesome and severe. More importantly, announcing that a mother breeder should feed their child milk for their first year and then sell them. Could this be a joke? For weeks my innocent baby has been naked, cold, and no longer
We live in a society where men and women are not see the same nor are treated equally. Gender inequalities have always been an issue in our society. Women have always gain less respect than men based on their sex. The society has developed certain images and roles for males and females. Men are seen to have masculine traits such stability, independence, and confidence; whereas, women have more feminine traits such as nurturing, affection, and patience. As well, the society has developed the division of occupations for genders. Females are expected to work in caring professions such as: a nurse, sectary, or teacher. While men are expected to be: doctors, lawyers, and construction workers. These stereotypes of gender should not state what a woman can do. A woman should have the same opportunities as men when is come to issues such as paying rate and job positions. This paper will address gender inequalities that women face in their occupations.

Gender bias discrimination is a global phenomenon today. The biggest challenge, before the entire world is that of gender justice. There is no existence of a single gender bias neither in the Western world nor in traditional Asian and in the African societies.

Sexism has been a problem since the existence of man and woman. It brings on the controversial issue of men and women, and how they are not considered equal in society. There are many different perspectives on sexism and whether or not it still exists. Feminist writers such as Daly, Frye, and Millett all stress the way in which women have been subject to the power of men and how the female self is ‘invaded’ by patriarchal conditioning. Frye, in particular, has a strong opinion on the issue. As Jean Grimshaw states in her article, Autonomy and Identity in Feminist Thinking, “Frye sees women as simply ‘broken’ and then ‘remade’ in the way that suits their masters.”
Being a woman and working in an environment full of women, gender inequality is transparent everywhere. Gender can determine how much education one gets, how much money one earns, what jobs one is qualified for, and how one is treated in society. Men are in the dominant group of society, while women are subjected to the subordinate group. Women’s duties and appearances are under immense pressure due to western culture. Women are pressured to be sexually attractive and to serve men.
Set in nineteenth century Ohio, Beloved is both an integral part of the midwest contemporary literary tradition and a haunting description of racism in America post slavery. The Nobel Prize-winning novel was adapted into a film in 1998 directed by Jonathan Demme. The primary similarities between the two versions of the story are the characters, which are virtually identical, although the novel spends more time on other characters that are only referenced in the movie. Additionally, the complexity of Beloved herself is largely lost in the film adaptation. In the novel, her main purpose is to heal and bring the past to light and force other characters to deal with it and move on.

This issue is unacceptable and must be stopped immediately.
There are four terms used to describe those who believe in the religion of Judaism “Hebrew, Israelites, Judeans and Jews.” These terms frequently are incorrectly used as an alternate name for each other, but instead should be used to describe the evolution of Judaism. The first term “Hebrew” begins with Abraham, who upon God’s request leaves Ur of the Chaldeans and travels to Canaan where his descendants will establish a nation. Explained by traditional biblical historians the term Hebrew means "to traverse or to pass over" as relating to Abraham, in Genesis 14:13, who crossed over the Euphrates River of Mesopotamia on his journey from Ur to Canaan.
