Article Overview: Barbie Doll Culture And Heterosexual Courtship Violence
[ send me this paper ]

and how anger and intolerance have made themselves uninvited guests in many a heterosexual courtship relationship. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Athol Fugard's "The Road To Mecca"
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. No one likes to be branded as different from the social norm, especially when such unwarranted labeling is founded within a quagmire of gender, cultural and racial intolerance. Miss Helen, of Athol Fugard's The Road to Mecca, represents just such a person whose only crime against society is being her own person, asking nothing of anyone and only wanting to be accepted for the unique individual she truly is. What she receives instead is a barrage of unsubstantiated judgment as to the validity of her character, the constant challenge to assimilate into the norm and a general yet overwhelming understanding of how a woman's entire existence is inextricable linked with the presence of a man; once that link is broken, she is no longer worthy of regard as an individual. Expounding upon issues of aging, personal freedom, human worth, loneliness, individuality, defiance against the norm, religious directives Religion and the never-ending quest for spirituality, Fugard strives to bring forth the extent to which people create conflict on so many levels, not the least of which include religious/secular, young/old and gender. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

Australia’s Glass Ceiling
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page paper discussing the course of change from women’s perspective over the years. It appears that advances for women in general are preceded with intense social change. It was not until the 1970s that women made noticeable and lasting advances in Australia, after the “women’s movement” had been operational for some time. Today, it is Generation X that dictates the need for balance in work and home life. As men seek to achieve more of the balance that has been required of women in the past, likely there will be fewer gender-based differences apparent as well. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Betty Friedan's "The Feminine Mystique"
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. That patriarchy has been the controlling social force for centuries has effectively placed the female gender in the shadows of acceptance, while the male gender has successfully progressed in all possible areas: politics, education and economics. "The Feminine Mystique" by Betty Friedan – originally penned in the 1960s – notes that for women, these areas have long histories of restraint through design of the woman’s role; the effects of such designs have been so well entrenched that they have automatically applied to essentially every other area of public life. No additional sources cited.

Betty Friedan's "The Feminine Mystique" And Eldridge
Cleaver's "Soul On Ice"
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Comparing the postwar work of Betty Friedan to that of Eldridge Cleaver is to draw a common denominator from two seemingly divergent perspectives. While Friedan's The Feminine Mystique addresses the cultural narrow-mindedness of gender, Cleaver's account in Soul On Ice focuses upon the long-standing racial inequities that have plagued man since the beginning of time. Clearly, to compare these two works encourages the student to seek out this common denominator; at the same time, however, the
student will also want to discuss the individual characteristics pertinent only to each specific book. No additional sources cited.

Biography Of Ida B. Wells
[ send me this paper ]
11 pages in length. Like so many others who grow up a minority surrounded by the constant inequity of racial and cultural divide, Ida B. Wells was outraged by the society in which she lived. Unlike most others, however, Wells did not sit idly by and merely complain about the intolerable situation; a young, black woman with a fire lit beneath her very being, she used her talents as a writer and her courage as a young, defiant black woman to make a mark in history that preceded the likes of Rosa Parks and other more contemporary suffragettes. Her passion was justified when she successfully brought lynching to national attention and ultimately played an integral role in its decline near the end of the twentieth century. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
