1,565 words
For women, wartime was considered the best years
of their lives by some people and historians. Not
only did women come to the countrys aid in time of
need, they also started the concept of women
having a job. The idea of women at work during

Marine Corps Fifth Amendment
1,186 words
The idea of women in combat is not unusual
anymore. They should be able to hold combat
positions because although physical strength
matters, the military still needs the intelligence
that women can bring. Also, banning women from the
combat hurts their military careers. Although
women account for a very small percent of the
enlisted personnel they are still a major part in
the armed forces. Their performance recently has
generated support from Congress and the public for
enhancing the role of fe...

indeed so in the case of the volunteers who worked
tirelessly to ease the suffering of the wounded

northern France and Belgium, during the First
World War. In the early days of the war, army
nursing was strictly a male preserve, until it was
necessary to recruit female nurses from the ranks

scarcity of hospitals in France meant that many
men copped a Bright and were sent home as there
were no facilities to treat their wounds. Many
nurses grumbled that they had volunteered to serve
abroad at the Front and there was a great deal of
jealousy and resentment aimed at those who were
posted to France. As regards nursing, they were
told that England should be regarded as the Front,
and the home hospitals should be regarded as an

Touch With Reality Mental Illness
1,460 words
It is my intention in this paper to build on the
idea put forward by Thomas Seas that mental
illness is, in fact, a myth. Labelling theorists
such as Goffman believe that the label "insane" to
a person may represent an important stage in the
process if becoming mentally ill. It is my opinion
that as labels of madness are so much a part of
our everyday language, their use has a big effect
not only on the individuals perception of
themselves, but on the cultural perception of
mental illness. These...

The ability to sexually stimulate an audience is
one of the earliest distinctions of film. Before
the turn of the century, an exotic dancer named
Fatima performed her act for the motion-picture
cameras and for at least those segments of the
public who saw the film uncensored. In the brief
peep-show films of the early 1900 s, scantily-clad
women posed, danced, or undressed in such
then-daring efforts as Her Morning Exercise and
The Pajama Girl. Municipal censorship boards
