For Virginia Woolf, the differences between a men’s university and a women’s university were very distinct. Rather than compare statistics and classrooms, Woolf uses the meals that are served at each university and the atmosphere in which they are served in order to illustrate the differences between the universities. Using juxtaposition and metaphors, as well as diction and imagery when comparing the meals, Woolf addresses her underlying position- women’s place in society. Woolf discusses the meal at the men’s university first, her favorite of the two. With her flavorful diction, it’s clear why she favors this meal.
When I look on the menu, the way they have their food displayed is great. Every time I order something, I get something that does not look like what I saw on the menu. I know that my food is not going to look exactly like the menu, but let it look at least something like the menu. When you get food that looks totally different from what you saw and the waiter is trying to convince you that it is the same order, then it is a problem. All I am saying is let the presentation on the menu look somewhat like the food that they are serving you.
As we ate our meal the waitress made many trips to give refills. The only problem with the service was the fact of another person bringing over our meal which is definitely understandable since the restaurant was considerably busy. Dining at Cracker Barrel was an enjoyable experience for me. With the abundance of fresh southern meals, and its unique and amazing environment, it simply helps you to relax while forgetting your troubles. During my visit to the Cracker Barrel I experience a historical atmosphere, the food was exceptional, the best of service, and although normally very busy, especially at prime season, it does not take long to get a table.
He takes her to places where they can talk one-on-one. The non-devoted is just looking for a girl for fun. There is no room in his life for commitment. He, on the other hand, loves the bar scene. He usually finds a several excuses as to why he can't find the right woman and uses such excuses to explain why he is still single.
Observation Paper: First Hand Experience of Observing Gendered Behavior The behavioral differences between men and women are almost so blunt and right in your face that most people do not even notice them without paying attention. I realized this after I went to three separate destinations with the mindset that maybe there would be some differences that were noticeable, but nothing that would surprise me. Oh boy was I wrong. The places I checked out were, the Thirsty Lion Pub and Grill, Wal-mart, and Cue Club, which is a bar on Mill Avenue. At each of these destinations I had observed many differences in the ways men and women communicated from basic gender roles to the social behaviors between each gender.
The non-committer just looks for a woman. Apparently there’s no room in his life for THE woman. He, on the other hand, loves the bar scene. He usually finds a million excuses why he can’t find the right woman and uses them to explain why he is still unattached. On a date, he orders trendy food such as sushi to impress his date and he often monopolizes the conversation.
Chances are the rest of her customers will be pleasant and easy to serve. She should concentrate on them, not him. Ignore the bad, reward the good. Even though the speaker in this poem is loud and obnoxious, I relate much more to his audience than him. I naturally have empathy for anyone having to listen to, “Song to a Waitress.” So, even though you
Stereotypical America I think it is safe to say that present day America is molded out of different stereotypes and assumptions on other races, genders, sexes, cultures and ethnicities. Society as a whole has a way of covering these stereotypes and making it look not so bad. One way they do this is humor. Even in a college setting guys are always making jokes about sex and gender related issues, for example, guys tell girls to “get in the kitchen” or “make me a sandwich” because they think that is the woman’s place and they belong there however it is masked in a joke or joking way. They may not be legitimately telling a girl to “get in the kitchen” but it’s funny to them.
“Now, I tell my sister, these poles, there wires do not look the same to me. Nothing is innocent, my sister reminds me. But nothing, I would like to think, remains unrepentant. One summer, heavy rain fell in Nebraska and some green telephone poles grew small leafy branches.” The very last lines of the last passage of the essay speak more or less for themselves. They also speak on behave of Eula Biss’s intentions with her essay; time will heal.
http://www.victorianweb.org/index.html The Women at English Literature Jane Eyre (by Charlotte Brontë) The role of Jane Eyre is an excellent example on the view and manners of women in the Victorian Period. She is resigned, but already have personal thoughts and pursues. She is a middle-class worker, with no actual family and no prospects, at the beginning, of improvement. But, because of her personality, she manages to transform her life in many ways. If she were a "kind" child, by the eyes of Mrs. Reed, she would never go to Lockwood school; she were able to grow up in terms of knowledge in the school, because she had the need of being liked by others and was strong enough to improve herself in many ways; she, by herself, took a chance when announcing to be a governess.
