Ulysses Harbors Unrepentant Contempt Incredulous Arrogance Ulysses Possesses Reader
2,117 wordsA Hero Among Men, A Man Among Heroes The name Ulysses instantly conjures up images of heroism and adventure.

The Ulysses of his imagination is restless rather than self...

Men Feel Social Construction
1,442 wordsMen and Masculinity Why are men so sensitive when it comes to their masculinity? This question came to me when I began reading the introduction of this section on sex.

These traits are not only bestowed upon them by their parents, but by movies, music and government of the past and present. ? For many straight men, homosexuality is a direc...
