Same sex marriage became legal on June 26th, 2015. So, why is there still discrimination? It’s legal, right? The discrimination against homosexual athletes in American sports is out of control and needs to be changed immediately. How would people feel being looked down upon being one of the only openly gay athletes in the United States? Before 2014 there was not any openly gay athletes currently playing professional sports in the United States. This shows the fear humans have when it comes to being
How genre conventions are used to raise audience expectations in horror movie trailers. ‘The word genre means ‘type’ or ‘category’’ (Teach yourself film studies) it is really important as an audience member to recognise genres as then things become categorised and easier for them to understand which is more comforting.

For some of us, participating in small talk may come easily, while for others it may be quite difficult. Some individuals may find small talk to be irritating while others find it a necessity. In this paper I am going to explore what exactly defines small talk as such; the reasons why people find the need to engage in small talk; the benefits, and disadvantages of small talk;
Comfortability in the Uncomfortable When I first entered high school, I struggled with the anxieties that stemmed from situations and conceptions, which formed an undying lack of confidence. Understanding myself and questioning why anxiety was something I specifically would have to deal with was frustrating and isolating. Why am I dealing with this? Will I ever be “cured”?
