In the play, Gwendolen sets the image for a typical Victorian woman, along with her mother, Lady Bracknell. She has her personal values and ideals, and exhibits self- confidence. This can be proven by some of her lines in Act 1, like her first line “I am always right!” or “In fact, I am never wrong.” However, sometimes her over-confidence makes her look foolish. When she meets Cecily for the first time, she declares that they were going to be “great friends” and she has “likes her more than she can say”. Then when she suspects that Cecily is going to steal her fiancé, Gwendolen immediately switches her tone to saying that she “distrusted” Cecily from the first moment she saw her and that her “first impressions of people are invariably right”.
Everybody might think she’s crazy but I think she’s a legend, from blue lipstick to glitter cannons Ke$ha has it all, but most importantly she knows how to be herself. - If there is someone that has ever done the craziest things ever imagined I think that person would most likely be Ke$ha. - Would you ever write a dollar sign in your name to symbolize how poor you once were and make a joke out of it?

Everybody might think she’s crazy but I think she’s a legend, from blue lipstick to glitter cannons Ke$ha has it all, but most importantly she knows how to be herself.
When she receives the ring from Gerald, she is immediately 'excited', and Priestley shows this in her speech with the use of dashes as she asks 'Mummy - isn't it a beauty?'. She shows appreciation of the 'perfect' ring to Gerald which shows she really is 'pleased with life' but almost possessed by Gerald.Although the Mr and Mrs Birling have been portrayed as arrogant, Sheila is contrasted to show compassion towards the conditions of the workers immediately when she hears about her father's treatment of Eva Smith - when she says 'these girls aren't cheap labour - they're people'. This shows how at the start of the play she is the only character so far that is capable of change, after Mr Birling denies all responsibility of the death of Eva Smith. Sheila is devastated when she realises her part in Eva Smith's death, she feels full of guilt for

Holden once again notices Sunny’s humane nature when she says, “ like fun you are”, instead of saying a more bitter response (Salinger pg.94). Holden repeatedly said he felt “sad”, thinking of Sunny “going in a sore and buying” the green dress, who would unexpectedly and sadly be used for prostitution (Salinger pg. 95) As Holden got more personal with Sunny, she revealed her actions before “going to work”. Holden begins to imagine Sunny in her day hours, thinking of her as a person instead of a whore. As Holden got closer to sex he tried to be more societal with her, to forbear sexual relations , and to talk to her instead: “I said I’d pay you for coming and all” (Salinger pg.
Curley’s wife is said to have ‘put her hands behind her back and leaned against the door frame so that her body was thrown forward.’ From this the reader can infer that she has a lack of respect for herself. It can also be inferred that because the men see her as a piece of meat, she chooses to act like one, because if you’re constantly being called something eventually you will act like it. The fact that George says ‘well he aint now’ in a brusquely manor show that Curley’s wife is seen to an irritating
Therefore the girls have just hit puberty and are discovering themselves in a whole new way. They are very critical of themselves from this point on. “One was complaining to the other that she thought her butt was more heart than bubble and that she wanted bubble. And her friend [Cathy] said she thought heart was the best.” (178). Later in the story, when Tina is kissing the cute boy from the poster store, she continues to judge herself while thinking “how it [the skirt] had held in her butt and if she had been wearing that plastic skirt now, and he held her butt, it would remind him of a bubble, not a heart.
Why other people hated them so, and if I started behaving like one I could go off and find someone to play with” (Lee, 119). Jem tells Scout that she is acting like a “girl”. Society has made him think that way. Jem being Scout’s brother is prejudice towards her because he is ignorant. Women are expected to be “ladies” and to behave prim and proper.
Aaqib Hussain Standing Female Nude Carol Ann Duffy A feminist reading The poem ‘Standing Female Nude’ by Carol Ann Duffy represents the voices of thousands of women across the worlds, who have been used as the models for nude paintings. Duffy sets the model who narrates the poem in a pre-Euro using patriarchal France. France has a rich history of Art which dates back to cultural greats who are still mentioned to this day, such as Claude Monet, so instantly we get the sense of a great piece of work is about to take place. However, this does not turn out to be the case, rather the tone we get from the narrator is one of displeasure and boredom. “Six hours like this for a few francs.” Nude art has been praised in the past as an admiration and celebration of the human body, whereas in this case it is seen by the model herself as a chore rather than a privilege and an honour as we would think it to be.
