Pyle’s perception is that he is confident Phuong will go for him but in reality she picks Fowler. Fowler has a constant fear of losing love as he perception has lead him to leave established relationships in the past. He is appealed by Phuong as she gives him the sense of security, the feeling “she won’t run away from home so long as the home is happy (pg 104).” Pyle perceives that he has to suffer a lot in giving up Phoung. “I know what I’d have to suffer if I had to give up Phuong” said Pyle which shows that the truth often becomes a matter of perception rather than reality to Pyle as he thinks she will chose him rather than Fowler. Another example is shown in the book “The Secret River” by Kate Grenville where the Australians declared Australia as “Terra Nullius” meaning empty land
Shakespeare portrays a rude and independent character of Benedick. Benedick uses strong words to characterize Beatrice. “Oh god, here is a dish I love not … But till all graces be in one woman, one woman shall not come in my grace”. In Shakespeare’s time people would suffer just to get food, it was very precious to them. When Benedick says he does not like the dish, he is being disrespectful not only to Beatrice but to the people of the time.

Even though Todd and Reggie are homosexuals the professional should not be worrying about their homosexuality, instead the professional should be worried about the relationship issues that brought Todd and Reggie in to see them. If I was the human service professional for this case, I would not feel uncomfortable about Todd and Reggie being homosexual because this is their personal beliefs. I personally do not agree or disagree with this type of behavior because it’s not for me to judge, but I was raised up to know that morally it is wrong to be in a
At first Winston agrees with Antigone’s actions in the play because they are similar to those of his self. However, not until after the physical aspect of Antigone’s character is brought into effect, does Winston begin to reject his role as playing a woman. Before this Winston’s reasons for not wanting to do the play were simply because he did not feel like spending time on it. The society that these two men live in has defined women as inferior to men. Therefore no one wants to be seen as womanly, the physical representation of a woman changes Winston’s desire to act as Antigone in the play.
It's best to have respect for yourself and for your culture/customs. One reason that I believe that's the moral/lesson of the story is because of Amy being the exact opposite what the moral/lesson would be. She was ashamed throughout the whole dinner because of her father's methods of doing things, for example, his belch at the end of dinner and poking the fish in the eye to get Amy a fish cheek. From Amy's view it looked to be rude and embarrassing when she could have been respecting of herself. If she was respecting herself, and her culture it would have been a better way for her.

A blind man in my house was not something I looked forward to” (100).
However, given the fact that she is a female may be somewhat of a constraint. Females, generally speaking, are more nurturing and don’t really share that ‘tough love’ practice that males do. This may be a reason why she would not want to penalize the obese and smokers. Pressey would love to see a positive change for these people and would like to motivate them to do so. On the other hand, some people feel that this topic should not even exist as it is too intrusive into an employee’s personal life.
He wants what’s best for her, but doesn’t want to see himself get hurt along the way. He likes being in control, and the feeling of Diane’s acceptance and love, is one of the more important things to him. Neil is tired of not being intimate with Diane, and he slightly keeps pushing her towards what he wants, but every time follows regret and suppressed anger, because he knows she’s not ready. He tells her that he’ll wait for her, but it’s not something he’s happy about. He holds grudges against it, but he loves her and therefore he stands by her choice.
