The Function Of Female Orgasm
2,011 words
This is something I wrote while I was at college
about a year ago and it details some new research
that has been published about the possible purpose
of the female orgasm, which I think is pretty
interesting... It's pretty dry and academic in
tone and contains some fairly specialist language,
but most of it should be pretty clear to most
people. If anyone has a question or wants some
more information on this kind of thing, mail me:
Does the female orgasm have a function and, if so,
what is it? T...

Sexist Attitude Loved Tom

The relationship between Tom and Maggie in Books 1
& 2 I think most of the problems with Tom and
Maggie's relationship are due to the fact that Tom
thinks that females are inferior to males. He
therefore thinks that Maggie is inferior to him
and he shows this in the way that he treats
Maggie. Tom and Maggie both have a strong
relationship with their father so therefore he

between sex and gender. Males and females have
very different statuses. Often times ones gender
is inconsistent with what society deems
appropriate. In the book, The Last Time I Wore a

as passive and compliant. Frankenstein does not
appear to be attracted to women and even when he
marries Elizabeth he shows little of the

Lord Of The Flies Boys And Girls
913 words
What was it that caused the aggression and
dominance exhibited by the boys of Lord of the
Flies? Was it some metaphysical, spiritual force,
or perhaps their genetic makeup? Could it have
been the influence of their peers or families, or
was it the media that inspired this dangerous
pattern? Conceivably, their gender had something
to do with this appalling trait. It all begs the
question, would the same experiences have occurred
had females been stranded on the island instead of
males? Had female...
