In the article “Two British Boys”, by William E. Schmidt, James Bulger, who was two years old, was murdered. In the hour before the ruthless murder where they beat him with stones, bricks, and metal, they intentionally lied to concerned civilians who approached the two boys as they dragged a screaming James Bulger down the sidewalk. “Some passers-by did intervene on James 's behalf, only to be told by the boys that James was either a younger brother or a lost child they were taking to a nearby police station. When one woman challenged that explanation, telling the boys they were walking away from the police station, one said they had been wrongly sent that way by someone else. ”(Schmidt, 10).
In discussing the many facets of masculinity among young men, one key issue has been the correlation it has with several developmental concerns. In Michael Kimmel’s 2008 publication “Bros Before Hos: The Guy Code”, he talks about how men believe manhood is really achieved. More specifically, he talks about “Guy Code”, the universal rulebook that all men must follow if they wish to remain in good standing among their fellow man. These rules are taught as early as their toddler years.
In Glenn Reynolds’ article “A War on College Men” he is responding to Jared Polis’ idea of expelling all men who are accused of sexual assault on college campuses, believing it is better to get rid of all, even if two out of ten are actually guilty. It would flip one of the “longstanding traditions of American law,” which is the idea that letting ten guilty men free is better than imprisoning one innocent. According to Reynolds, this policy would be going against due process rights. Expulsion for sexual assault on a man’s record would create extreme difficulty with entering a new college or finding a job. Reynolds quotes Eugene Volokh’s ideas that Polis “doesn’t think the rights of the accused are very important at all” and that this

To the editor, I am writing in response to a letter to the editor that was printed in the Hardwick Gazette on September 16, 2015. The title of this letter was The People’s Meeting, written by Michael Colby. In this letter Colby can be heard, once again, harassing and slandering the chairman of the Walden school board, Ray Lewis. It seems as though Colby is attempting to sway the Walden community to question Mr. Lewis’s character. In considering the unscrupulous characteristics and motives that Colby has consistently demonstrated, there need be no question about the root of his distrust for others.
Daniel Teplan Professor Tyson Ward FIQWS 10113 24 October 2015 “Are we all just dudes?” Slang terms we use change almost on a daily basis. Old terms get forgotten or evolve into something new, and new ones are made up. We rarely think about the origin of words and that’s why it may seem shocking to find out what it first meant. This is also the case with the word ‘dude’.

History has repeatedly given men privilege due to their physical advantages; yet it is these same advantages that have developed into “rules” or expectations that all men should conform to in order to prove their manhood. Michael Kimmel’s essay, “‘Bros Before Hos': The Guy Code” outlines the “rules” where men are expected to never show any emotions, be brave, act knowledgeable, be risk takers, be in control, act reliable, and be competitive, otherwise they would be showing weakness which is analogous to women. It is humiliating that men associate weakness with women; they should focus on the potential of the individual rather than their gender. Most insults toward men attack their masculinity because society finds it shameful for men to be
My Values of Equality Milton Friedman, an American economist, in his article “Created Equal”, points out his concept about “Created Equal”. Friedman discusses the different ways that humans are considered to be equal, and then he declares three specific categories for human equality: equality before God, equality of opportunity and equality of outcome. Friedman argues that the first equality is the Founders’ use, the second equality is compatible with liberty, and the third equality is socialism. Equality is such a beautiful word that everyone should appreciate, and Friedman claims his points about its concept from his own comprehension. I really respect Friedman’s points about equality; however, there is something critical about equality which
“An Entrance to the Woods” is an essay by Wendell Berry about the serenity and importance of nature in his life. In this essay, the author uses tone shifts from dark to light to convey his idea of finding rebirth and rejuvenation through nature. In the beginning of the essay, Berry has left civilization for the first time in a while, and finds himself missing human company and feeling “inexplicably sad” (671). This feeling of sadness is in part from the woods itself, and partly due to Berry leaving the hustle and bustle of normal life in the cities, and the violent change from constant noise to silence causes him to feel lonely in the woods. As a result of feeling alone in the woods, the tone of the essay is dark and brooding, as seen through Berry’s somber diction and mood, as seen on page 671: “And then a heavy feeling of melancholy and lonesomeness comes over me.
When we think about gender inequality, we usually think about the hardships that women have had to go through throughout the years. Even though we have evolved into a better society in terms of acceptance and comprehension, some women say that both genders are not equal and that they still can't have it all. In “Why Men Still Can’t Have It All” Richard Dorment explains that neither women nor men can have it all. Dorment walks us through all the hardships and pressure men have to endure on a daily basis. He shows us that men do not have it all and gives many reasons for why men do not have it better than women.
The message that too much technology is not good for people is the main theme of the story. Both the children and the parents experience effects from using the machines to do everything for them. Also, the children are so spoiled from unlimited technology that they can’t live without
Pride and Prejudice Jane Austen is one of the greatest novelists of English Literature. She was born in 1775 at Steventon in Hampshire, in the south of England.
