pessimistic, and they are attracted to the thought

People Of England Treated Equally

Society is ever changing. Both physical and
culturally we must adapt to new environments and
changing culture. In literature there have been
many analyses done on these changes. Two of the
most influential of their time were perhaps John

Darwin's The Descent of Man. In examining these
two works it is interesting to note the parallel
discussions of evolution in society. Mills The
Subjection of Women looks at the struggles of
society in adapting to...

more, and nothing less. Homosexuals are a growing
minority with nearly a million gays and lesbians

couples in the 2000 census. But the total gay

one perfect person whom they fall hopelessly in
love with and live happily ever after. That is a
mere fallacy, in the real world, this simply does
not happen. Yes, people do have common interests
and therefore develop romantic involvement, but it
is basic common sense that these relationships
have a life span and simply cannot last. Real life
relationships are definitely more like "The Real
World" rather than "Romeo and Juliet." Romanticism
