Introduction

The objectification of women in cheerleading has been noted in many several news materials, research articles and online blogs. Women are presented in scantily clad clothes and are assigned to dance in provocative ways to ensure that audience is entertained. Overtime objectification of women and their body parts in cheerleading groups leads to women developing self-objectification traits. Female self-objectification has been defined as "regular exposure to objectifying experiences that socializes girls and women to engage in self-objectification, whereby they come to internalize this view of themselves as an object or collection of body parts” (Szymanski, Moffitt, & Carr, 2010, p. ...

Throughout their lives, women who worked as prostitutes had hard lives and often in poverty. Only very few of these women had ...

The goal of this essay is to provide artwork analysis of three contemporary paintings such as Whitney’s Cold Moon Dancer, Sheehan’s I Never Planned to Have You Here, and Dugas’ Wake. These three works of art exemplifies the influences of modernism due to the fact that artists explored different artistic styles in order to portray their subjects from a different perspective. From that point, the resulting paintings were brave, bolder, and revolutionary in a sense that these works broke the traditional art forms of either ‘humanizing’ or illustrating realistic and religious figures. For instance, Whitney’s Cold ...

Inside and Outside: Moral Goodness In Three Short Stories by John Updike

John Updike’s early short fiction written during the period between the late 1950s and mid 1970s confronts the issue of morality in post-World War II America. Updike wrote in his novel Rabbit, Run, “Goodness lies inside, there is nothing outside. . .” (325). Updike’s fiction shares in common the theme of inner goodness confronted with a world where morality is empty. In three of Updike’s short stories, “The Happiest I've Been,” (1958), “A&P,” (1960), and “Problems,” (1975) the author treats the subject of morality in three different but connected ...

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte shows the hierarchical class system prevalent in England in the 19th century. The strict class system during the 19th century required everyone to continue the circumscribed class positions. Through the character of Jane, Bronte tries to question this system. For instance, the novel raises the issue of whether a governess should be considered upper class due to her superior education or lower class due to her servant-like status in the family. Her journey through the established class structure results in her judgments based on the class stereotype. Part of her judgment arises because she cannot ...

Abstract

Theory of evolution as proposed by Darwin has for long hinged on the fossil records to prove the process of evolution. However, the prevalent gaps in the fossils led way to the development of the punctuated equilibrium theory that was proposed by Eldredge and Gould as an alternative to Darwin’s phyletic gradualism theory. The punctuated equilibrium postulated that speciation occurs in an isolated peripheral subsect of population as a rapid change after a period of stasis. Unlike the anagenetic speciation of phyletic gradualism, punctuated equilibrium promotes the concept of cladogenetic speciation. However, punctuated equilibrium does consider rapid anagenetic speciation as a ...

In Zack Snyder's film adaptation of the Frank Miller graphic novel 300, a group of Spartans, led by Leonidas (Gerard Butler) engage on a bloody and patriotic campaign of destruction in order to defend Sparta from the oppressive, mercurial and mythic Persians, led by Xerxes (Rodrigo Santoro). In this film, the value of community responsibility is placed above all else, as the 300 Spartans are tasked with the ultimate defense of their homeland without fail. Many instances of mythological symbolism occur in the film; Leonidas kicking the messenger down what seems to be a bottomless well, after declaring "THIS IS SPARTA!" is ...

The distinction between gold plated and gold clad can be confusing. If an item is sold as having any amount of gold the quality of that gold is regulated by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. 24 karat gold is 99.9 percent pure. By FTC standards, only 24 karat gold may be called gold without additional reference, abbreviation or qualification. However the processes used for how the gold is applied and how thick it is not always regulated. Because of this, it may not be easy to figure out how valuable the item is. To add to the confusion, both ...
