Point Counter Point, By Aldous Huxley

In the world of sex, drugs, and baby cloning you are going to be in many situations where you feel like the world we live in should be different. In the story Brave New World, they had sex with multiple partners along with a very bad use of drugs.

“And that," put in the Director sententiously, "that is the secret of happiness and virtue — liking what you 've got to do. All conditioning aims at that: making people like their unescapable social destiny.”

In Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, people in the book show lack of emotion,feelings,interest or concern especially regarding matters of general importance or appeal wishing we had lack of apathy, my prediction is that people will no longer have strong emotions about anything important.They will become apathetic about most issues.We are convinced that one individual doesn’t matter. We can’t really make a difference in anything we believe in. That’s one of the reasons why people have started to lose interest in many aspects of their lives because they can’t do anything to change that. However,this only applies to a certain part of the population. To be honest in my opinion I personally think most of our generation thanks to social media

Aldous Huxley is the author of Brave New World and several different literary works. He was born into an aristocratic family in an English county called Surrey in 1894. Huxley probably received the best education a young writer could’ve gotten in England, attending Oxford University. In 1963, he died at the age of 69 in Los Angeles, California.

In Aldous Huxley’s “Brave New World,” there is a forceful religious connotation. Huxley’s uses of biblical allusions emphasize the inborn necessity of spiritual belief, in even the most neutral society. By assimilating religious references into the population, specific characters, and science, he successfully illustrates the absolute need for the religion in any society

Humans live their day-to-day life searching for something that makes them truly happy. What if someone were to tell you that what you thought was true happiness was all an illusion. In a Brave New World by Aldous Huxley people in the world state are conditioned and drugged up by soma to not experience true happiness.

When Aldous Huxley wrote Brave New World in 1931, nobody imagined that his fairytale story would someday be a reality. It is almost scary to see how accurate Huxley's far-fetched fantasies came to be. When Huxley wrote about the conformity, drug use and sex and technology of the society, he was almost pinpoint exact to predicting today's societies. Unfortunately, all of these things haven't exactly changed our society today for the better.

The novel Brave New World written by Aldous Huxley in 1932 is known for its social satire, utopian values, and unusual standpoints on stereotypical gender roles. In this time where futuristic technology has completely taken over, and men and women are given the same opportunities for everything, “the genders appear equal within the social order; both men and women work at the same jobs, have equal choice in sexual partners, and participate in the same leisure pursuits” (March 53). Huxley makes for a rather interesting feminist; “he was not only concerned about making women equal to men, he was also deeply concerned with the effects of technology and globalization on the quality of life for both genders” (Douglas-McMahon 21). However, there are many different sections of his novel that prove he was unable to fully rid of gender roles because of the time period in which he lived. Many of the stereotypical gender roles discussed in this book are also multiplied or switched rather than abolished. In his attempt to rid of stereotypical gender roles, Huxley manages to revolutionize, make fun of, and reconstruct them all in one breath.

Women and men are different in many aspects from today, than in Brave New World. Some things that happen occur today, and others are unethical and do not. The author shows that men and women are classified as being the same, but have certain rules and boundaries. For example, having feelings for someone you’re sexually active with is bad, when we all know, today women and men normally gain feelings regardless. As far as having sex goes they don’t affiliate that with reproducing. They just do it like it’s a sport or their favorite past time. And they reproduce human beings by using what they call the Bokanvosky Process. Woman weren’t presented in the positive way that they should be.

Imagine living in a society where every single person acts and behaves the same. Do you think it’s possible? In the novel Brave New World, Aldous Huxley tells of a society where everyone is the same but, compared to today’s society, everything is different. Huxley tells of a world where everything that happens or takes place is because of one’s own desire and nothing more. The hero in the novel, a “savage” named John, is Huxley’s main focal point. It is through his eyes and mind that the reader sees what’s going on. Now when I read this novel, I began to think, “Could this perfect, conformed world actually exist”?

Usually in high school or even in real world events, if one doesn’t fall into the social norms of their peers, they become socially excluded from social events. In most cases, people in high school could agree with this statement. If one doesn’t dress the way people dress, socialize the way they do, and even act the way their peers do, not only would they be excluded from any social life but they would also feel very lonely. In the story Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, one could compare Bernard Marx to the lonely kid at school who feels isolated and criticized by his peers. Bernard 's physique and high level of status makes him feel so out of place and insecure. On Pg.67, Huxley describes him in a way that gives us an insight on how

Aldous Huxley’s utopia in Brave New World foreshadowed and illuminated the complications within modern day society. Upon its release, the narrative became widely banned all over the United States due to the unorthodox thoughts and actions of multiple characters in it. Early readers, as well as modern day audiences, feared and rejected the ideals that Huxley incorporated into his perfect society; however, our society today is heading towards the dark paths the older generations desired to avoid.

In the book Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, Marxism is seen through the whole story. In the story everybody serves the society in the world state. Society makes everybody’s needs and are fulfilled, as well as some of the characters show us Marxism in the way they act or where conditioned. Religion is as well seen in the novel and connected to Marxism.

In Brave New World, there are similarities that have a deeper meaning that we can understand. There are personal effects in Aldous Huxley life that contribute to what he has written in the book. Aldous Huxley throughout his life have seen, done, and events have happened to him, just like all of us, but he has expressed it in his book. So when Aldous wrote the he had so many ideas.

Brave New World was written in 1931 and published in 1932. Since then, thousands of copies have been sold. This novel has also been banned in many countries. This story is extremely controversial, but this is what makes it so good. It was rated number fifty-two out of one hundred most banned books from 1990-2001. Brave New World has made an impact on society by warning people of the possible outcomes of technological advances mixed with government control. This novel was inspired by H. G. Wells. Aldous Huxley made it a point to write this dystopian story to share the terrifying possibilities that the future could hold if we aren’t careful.
