Those things make it impossible to generalize about the typical American family. Back in the old days, the typical American family did exist but it has been changed by time.

placing a higher standard on men. It is unfortunate to say that in the 21st century gender restrictions and double standards do still exist. Women are faced with double standards and restrictions in their everyday lives, most noticeably at home or in the work place.

oppression of women, how to overcome it, and become an individual with a voice. This story takes us on the journey of a young, child-like woman diagnosed with a "temporary nervous depression" who is "absolutely forbidden to work."

Everybody Loves Raymond is a television sitcom based on a seemingly typical modern American household. The show is based around a loving but somewhat unequal marriage between Ray and Debbie. Thrown into the mix is Ray's overprotective mother, his domineering father, and his insecure brother. Most or these characters play into the American perception of what a man or a woman should be.

Mayan Culture Life of a Mayan A typical day in the life of a Mayan craft specialist is very interesting.

Although the story originally illustrates this boy, Sammy, as a typical teenager with infinite confidence, his experience ultimately diminishes his original self-assurance. Updike exposes the ignorance of the adolescent mind by juxtaposing Sammy’s inflated ego with the ironically deflating resolution. Sammy’s character epitomizes a typical teenage boy with an overly inflated ego, and an undeveloped understanding
