    Oppression is perpetuated in our society through supremacy and discrimination. Women of color have been subjected to the justifications of unfair treatment from their oppressors— both male and female— for generations and are expected to identify with misconceived definitions that have been externally attributed to their own realities. There is an immense pressure on the women of color who have broken out of the cycle of this socioeconomic imprisonment to maintain their standing within society 's

For women, people are biased against them because people think that women cannot do a job that is considered a man`s job, or they aren`t strong enough to do specific tasks. Women are judged when they are playing sports like soccer because reporters would ask them “how is it like playing with other girls?” It’s as their almost saying, “Are you ok with girls that might be lesbian?” There is also a bias for minorities as well because

    I love those interesting stories that affect us and go across time to inspire future generations. This English work allowed me to remember a story that touched me a few years ago and to discover a brand new one. I noticed that there is some similarities in the two stories though. Indeed, both stories are from the world of sports. I had never heard of Jason Mc Elwain before and I must say that I was particularly touched by his story.

    The paintings Venus of Urbino by Titian and The Nightmare by Henry Fuseli both have a prostrate woman as the focus of the piece. The women in the pieces are both seen in overtly sexual poses, which has allowed for critics over the centuries to call both pieces explicit. The idea of female sexuality that is shown in the two pieces portrays dissenting opinions of the concept. These different opinions seem to reflect the popular ideas and art movements of the era in which they were created. While Titian

The edge of the trap is lined with finger-like cilia that lace together when the trap closes. The trapping mechanism and digestion process is divided into four phases: the initial snap, the tightening phase, the sealing phases, and the reopening phase.
