Men, Women, Sex and Darwin “Men, Women, Sex, and Darwin” , by Natalie Angier discusses and gives a brief understanding of evolutionary psychology’s about no man or woman completely understands what it is that the opposite sex actually desires. Angier compares and contrast men and women’s sexual life preferences and what they desire in opposite gender while on their hunt for a mate. She also analyzes the various ways in which scientist have studied gender differences. I found a great deal of what she was saying to be interesting, especially, the part about women just wanting a provider and man want someone who is beautiful.
I think the portrayal of woman in popular literature does not change much in the thirty years. In both the book The Natural and Christine, woman are used as a tool to depict the characteristics of the male main characters. In The Natural, the role of Memo Paris is to reveal the naïve and innocence of the main character Roy Hobbs. Memo represents evilness in the book and it affects Roy negatively. In Christine, the “strange car” Christine is presented as a female character.
After studying her letters, one can estimate that despite being a worker, Mary Paul might have not been of such a low social class herself. She often asks for or addresses delivery of money with her father. Nevertheless, the gender pay gap affected all women. Furthermore, it was remarkably harmful for poor women, who unlike Mary Paul, were completely dependent on their labour in order to survive. So the letters delineate finally how society was stratified: working women had a lower status than working men, and lower class working women had an even lower status than middle class working
In the short story, “Girl” by Jamaica Kincaid, the stories narrators tries to control, who we assume is her daughter, though directions of house hold chores and the use of a harsh but fearful tones about her sexuality, so she can make sure her daughter understands what responsibilities she has in a domestic life style, and that her sexuality control will help her be a respected woman in the community. Or how to control her sexual behavior, both which will help her be a respected woman in her community. The author, Jamaica Kincaid is from a small island in the Caribbean called Antigua, and since there is no indication of a setting in the story, we can assume that Antigua is where the story takes place. Understanding the history of Antigua and what was happening at the time, tremendously helps understand why the mother is trying to control her daughter.
Novelist, Roxane Gay, in her essay “The careless Language of Sexual Violence”, voices her concerns about rape culture and how it is perpetuated in today’s society. She uses anaphora, imagery, and rhetorical questions in order to demonstrate how society “carelessly” (131) normalizes rape. In her essay, Gay uses rhetorical questions and anaphora to further stress her concerns and talk about how writers are gratuitous when talking about rape. She opens her essay using anaphora comparing “crimes” to “atrocities.
Socio-linguist Deborah Tannen demonstrates how men and women communicate differently in her essay “Sex, Lies and Conversation: Why Is It So Hard for Men and Women to Talk to Each Other?” In her observations of communication styles, she discusses the way in which men and women communicate leads them to conflict because they have different understanding of their partners’ role. She also explains male and female communication differences not only cause ineffective conversation, but also push couples into a dilemma in their relationship; however, as men and women better understand the differences, their relationship improves. In the first part of her essay, Tannen discusses men and women do not have enough effective communication, which damages their marriage.
In the 1920s, homosexuals were widely accepted. The author of a popular play about homosexuality, Mae West, was an early advocate of gay rights. In the 1930s, the public didn’t want to deal with homosexuality in the actors, so they forced them to retire or keep their sexuality private. Homosexuals would not be accepted again until the 1960s. In the 1930s, life was harsh for homosexuals.
Inside and beyond the myth and the social impact of the subject as One or Substance. Alan H. Goldman’s essay ‘Plain Sex’ is a central contribution to the academic debate about sex within the analytic area, which has been developing since the second half of the ‘90s in Western countries. Goldman’s purpose is encouraging debate on the concept of sex without moral, social and cultural implications or superstitious superstructures. He attempts to define “sexual desire” and “sexual activity” in its simplest terms, by discovering the common factor of all sexual events, i.e. “the desire for physical contact with another person’s body and for the pleasure which such contact produces; sexual activity is activity which tends to fulfill such desire of the agent” (Goldman, A., 1977, p 40).
Similarly, Kincaid illustrates benna, symbolize sexuality, subject the mother to remind her daughter about the identity of it. The daughter tries to defend herself and says, “but I don’t sing benna on Sundays at all and never in Sunday school says” (Kincaid). Despite the fact that the daughter may not deliberately compare benna with sexuality as her mother does, her protestations and by telling she knows very well the benna's tempting force, persona, and forbidden words. Indeed, the daughter, desperate denials may even clue that she really has sung benna in Sunday school with her companions, a sign of her blooming enthusiasm for young men and an indication of an expanding irritation with her mother's recommendation and interruptions into
The short story “Girl” by Jamaica Kincaid was published in 1978. The entire story has to do with mother talking to the daughter. The daughter does not say much. The subject matter of “Girl” has to do with being a female and how one should act. The theme of female sexuality is used throughout “Girl” to show the danger of female sexuality, power of domesticity, and sexual reputation.
Throughout her introduction of the tale, and the story itself, we see the Wife of Bath as an experienced, intellectual woman, who despite living in a world of patriarchal power, provides for herself financially, emotionally, and physically. As a feminist icon, she confronts serious social issues that illustrate the subjugation women faced. During her prologue and her tale, it is very clear that the Wife of Bath is proud and not ashamed of her sexuality. She views sex as a good ideal, and argues it, using references from the Bible, that God’s intentions
Men aren't really sophisticated when it comes to getting turned on; often enough just looking at a great girl is enough to get us going. You see, unlike women, we respond incredibly well to visual stimuli and that's what you, as a woman, need to take advantage of, if you want to get a guy turned on. For example, when you're reading a romance novel where the protagonists are having sex, you will, most of the time (and correct me if I'm wrong), try to or actually feel the feelings the woman protagonist is feeling. If a man was to read a romance novel, he would instead, visually imagine the sexual act - this can be a very tiring experience and that's just one of the reasons men prefer porn to romance novels.
Understanding gender and sexuality as socially constructed categories is important because it helps people understand a certain group. Gender and sexuality is expressed in many categories and people must be careful not to mix people in the wrong category. Simply because one expresses their sexuality different from another person does not mean they should be bashed or treated differently. Sometimes it does not matter what you identify as, who you identify with, people will always judge you, so its best people just do what they want. Putting gender in a category helps others not stereotype them as something they are not.
