However, the journey to get this privilege was not an easy task. I found the actions by Alice Paul and Lucy Burns truly remarkable. Both of these women were willing to fight till the death in order to get the right to vote. Alice and Lucy stood outside the White House with offensive signs such as “Kaiser Wilson” in order to prove that America says that it is a free country, but we still do not give women the right to vote and women’s citizenship. They demanded change and they were punished for this.
In the movie “The Blind Side” Sandra Bullock, who plays Leigh Anne Tuohy, is a very strong and motivating women. In other words she doesn’t take any crap from no one. This movie has shown that women in movies has changed quite a bit, in “Cinderella” Cinderella just waited to for someone to come and take her from this horrible life. In “The Blind Side” it’s actually a women who comes and saves this boy from his horrible life of living on the streets. It’s like women in movies has taken a total role reversal in movies today.
Katniss never fully came into her own in Mockingjay. In Hunger Games, she was a floundering yet passionate girl desperate to protect her family and stay alive. While she made a lot of mistakes, we loved her even more for them, because we saw her struggle, we believed her desperation and her motives, and we wanted her to succeed. We saw her near-double-suicide not as the easy way out, but the final spit in the face of the Capitol that had pulled the strings for so long. In Catching Fire, the story was fast-paced and intense, Katniss still struggling but really maturing as a fighter and a person.
Without the opposition being available the argument will lack meaning. Bosley presents her opposition effectively and strong. Throughout the article Cindy began to gain confidence towards winning the pageant. “I secretly believed that I stood a better chance … though she had the right name and the right body…” (Bosley 2). In contrast to Cindy’s new found self esteem, her mother seemed to uphold a strong lack of confidence in her daughter and in herself as well.
Her clothes being of the “coarsest material” and “sombre hue” (80) are evidence of the miserable feeling taking over her. As a result of her deception, Hester no longer obtains her former beauty. Instead, it is replaced with a dreary plainness. Hester is also affected emotionally. Before Hester was ever shunned by society due to the lies brought about by the scarlet letter, Hester was known to be a passionate woman.
Maxim de Winter hates his wife very much as she was a profligate woman. Rebecca had secret relationships with many other men including ger cousin. She threatened de Winter and forced him to accept the situation and promised to play as a perfect wife. When she was diagnosed as cancer, she cheated de Winter by saying that she had a child with her cousin and almost made de Winter kill her. She was finally died of an accident, but continued to bother him even after he had married the heroin.
In my opinion, the Gibson Girl is equivalent to the models young girls and women look up to in today’s time as inspiration to be strong-willed, confident, and free. This “new woman” image set a bit of fear in some for they feared this new ideal would disrupt the social order. Isadora Duncan is an example of one of the women who became a real-life example of these ideals. She was a popular entertainer and dancer and boldly undermined gender norms by dancing in bare feet and wearing short Greek-inspired tunics (Bowles, 2011 Sec 2.3). Duncan’s message was that she could achieve success without the help of a man.

In the world today, we, the public, spend so much time admiring stars from Hollywood and many of us want to be like them. Yet, there is so much pressure placed on them and sometimes this becomes all too much for them to cope with and they end up taking away their own life. This is the unpleasant and tragic side of being famous as we are all made to believe that fame will make you happy. Marilyn Monroe a talented and beautiful iconic star but, her fame was the death of her. Before Marilyn’s death, she had accomplished a lot for women in the U.S.’s society.
They form a very close relationship, and it grows into a passionate affair. Edna fights and struggles against society for independence and is overwhelmed with confusion, but she is finally able to break free from the role she was cast for through her successes. Like an audition, Edna does not make the cut for the role of a motherly woman. She loves her children dearly, but she does not express it like most mothers do. Madame Ratignolle and Edna have very different feelings and perspectives on motherhood.
