Why must I pretend I don’t know? Why are these people killing Negroes? What did Emmett Till do besides whistle at that woman” (Moody 404). The fact that Anne has all these questions, but is not getting any answers starts to make her angry, she becomes upset at those who killed Emmett Till, and even Negroes. Anne stated, “I hated them for not standing up and doing something about the murders.
Shakespeare is a master at providing an audience with keen insight into the human psyche through the actions and words of his heroes, and even more so, his villains. Contained in Shakespearian plays are characters that are considered archetypes for much of today’s basis of judging a person malicious or malevolent. Two of the most infamous villains in all of Shakespearian literature are Iago in Othello and Claudius in Hamlet. Both Claudius and Iago are driven by immoral ambitions, such as jealousy. Unlike many of the "evil villains" in literature, Iago and Claudius are far more complex than may be seen at first.
And what is a greater crime than making women hate themselves for reasons that they cannot change? The “anti-narcissism” that men have made consists of women not liking anything about them and wishing that they were the opposite sex just to get more respect. They don’t have any self-respect for themselves because of the nonsense that the “dominant” males have fed them their whole lives. This makes everything hostile for women and while men are busy controlling what the rules are and what can be published, women are struggling with this internal conflict that they’ll never get far in life because of their sex. Cixous boldly declares that women have been “kept in the dark.” What is this darkness you may ask?
The issue is that these men are affecting the others in society with their malicious ideals, notably the harmless women of this nation. Extracting all the secrets from them, the homosexuals cause women to begin to hate the men that may have only abused them once or twice, just so they can have them to themselves. How shameless can one get? Homosexuality is a problem both sexually and religiously. The bible- the religious book that all Americans follow- clearly stated that those who engage in such a sin as falling in love with the wrong person will be condemned to eternal hell.
The film shows the ones who are supposed to be servants of God are in fact the worst sinners. The Mother Superior, Sister Bridget is a sadist who enjoys inflicting pain on the women under her care and is corrupt beyond measure. The resident priest, Fitzroy, is a sexual deviant who rapes the mentally challenged Crispina. Religion has frequently been used as an instrument of control and those who set certain standards of behavior under the pretense of adhering to scripture are in fact only cementing their power over the masses. The movie is highly critical of the Catholic Church but
Drew Corbit 28 February, 2011 5th hour Major Themes of A Streetcar Named Desire There are 3 major themes in the play A Streetcar Named Desire, the first is the constant battle between fantasy and reality, second we have the relationship between sexuality and death, and lastly the dependence of men plays a major role in this book. One of the first major themes of this book is the constant battle between fantasy and reality. Blanche explains to Mitch that she fibs because she refuses to accept the hand fate has dealt her. Lying to herself and to others allows her to make life appear as it should be rather than as it is. Stanley, a practical man firmly grounded in the physical world, disdains Blanche’s fabrications and does everything he can to unravel them.
And he doesn't understand what bitch means and they keep calling him a bitch. And his sister was raped and I think killed. So I get why he shoots Tom in the stomache and leaves him to die. I mean, I'd be pretty pissed, too, if that happened to me. If the play used different language it wouldn't be as good of a play.
He is almost completely shunned from the town because he is trying to help a black man accused of rape. Mayella had told Tom, “I said come here, nigger, and bust up this chiffarobe for me, I gotta nickel for you.” (p.241) She had tricked him to coming over to her. Then that’s about the time when she accuses him of rape. He had felt sorry for her, which is why he was falsely accused in the first place. Courthouse segregation was one of the biggest bits of racism I found in this book.
Her title, "Elliot Rodger was a misogynist -- but is that all he was?," implies that she is attempting to figure out if he really was a misogynist or something more complex, but her real goal is to convince her readers that he was indeed nothing more than a misogynist acting out the violence that our misogynistic culture encourages; in addition to ignoring the hateful words Rodger directed at men, she also glossed over the deaths of his male roommates, his obviously troubled mental state, and his blatant racism. Hadley Freeman's 2014 Guardian article, "Elliot Rodger was a misogynist -- but is that all he was? ", therefore, is a perfect example of slanted
I feel bad and sad for the victims, because a woman can’t do anything when a man punches her. “Abusers often attempt to control and isolate victims in an effort to guard the secret of abuse and because of their jealously of any attention their partners may give or receive from family, friends, or coworkers” (Gagné 19). As the time passes, women will have bruising, bleeding, and scars that will never heal. A man hits a woman probably because he wants to act “macho”. He might be drunk or he only does it because he likes it.
