biologists research successfully, which contrasts with the image that most people have about biology labs generally. When people think of a biology lab, they first imagine a white neat lab coat, well-organized clear glass flasks and machine which is run very delicately. In addition, people imagine that a white male researcher wearing a white lab coat who is running that sensitive machine. The first photo, “Micropipetting in a Fume Hood,” shows a general image which looks very clean and elaborate without any
“Hills like White Elephants” by Ernest Hemingway and “Happy Endings” by Margaret Atwood share a gender-oriented theme. They both show women struggling to attain equality against their male partners. This theme is depicted through the use of symbolism, point of view and plot conflict. Symbolically, “Hills like White Elephants” represents a choice. It is a life choice that can’t be undone once it is made. This choice is about whether or not Jig, the female character of the story, should get an abortion
This article looks at Disney’s Beauty and the Beast and focuses primarily the role of men and the how they perform to fit into this white male system by means of upholding hegemonic masculinity. The two articles “Where do the Mermaids stand” and “The curse of Masculinity,” bring to attention the reinforcement of the white male system, the racialization in the white male system, and the reinforcement of hegemonic masculinity in beloved childhood Disney movies. Firstly, both the articles reinforce
attractive white female with a lot of skin showing kissing and hugging an attractive white male who is professionally dressed. The next thing that caught my eye was the fact that the male was staring off somewhere into the distance while this beautiful female was trying to kiss him. He is portraying himself as if he is disinterested in the female. The third and final thing that caught my eye before actual analysis of the advertisement was the fact that the picture is all black and white. The girl

The White Man's Muscles In today's society, the naked white male body is found everywhere. It can be seen in print ads, including clothing catalogues, TV commercials, and especially in movies, yet the prevalence of the naked white male body is something that has only been embraced since the 1980s. Prior to the 1980s, half naked white males were hardly ever seen in popular film because of the negative effects it would have on male self-esteem and masculinity. People in our generation
once treated is that men do not fight back. Although I agree with some points made by the article, such as the law/society targeting men, I disagree with a majority of it. I do not agree with the article’s direct focus on white American males. The article states that white males are being targeted in today’s society, without any mention of other races. If the article’s argument is the
Between the years 1900-2014, Chicanas/Latinas have defined themselves as strong, independent females in mainstream American society. For many years, Mexican women have fought against stereotypes, oppression among other obstacles in life. Chicanas are expected to portray a certain norm of the ideal Mexican women, mother, daughter, wife.

A white male without a high school education lowers his life expectancy by three years (Cockerham, 1982).

everything we thought we knew about our world. White men may be called the majority, but in many cases, other racial groups outnumber them. He speaks about example after example to prove to the audience that being a majority does not mean that you are in fact the majority of the population. Male-to-female ratio in college is a topic he discusses that I have really noticed. In most of my classes, females out-number the males. Nationally, public universities have male-to-female ratios that tip towards the
