... g of 'not being a whole man' can be especially
distressing [ 7 ]. An aspect of self can be
identified with a particular body part, as
masculinity is typically identified with the
penis. When that part is wounded there is often a
corresponding intellectual wound to the self and a
loss of self-esteem. How much of a connection
there might be between low male self-esteem is
uncertain. Low self-esteem often induces feelings
of shame and these are projected by attacking the
self-esteem of others; ...

Single Sex Education? Why would anyone want to go
to an all girls's chool? This is a question I have
often pondered. Can you imagine school without the
obnoxious comments from boys, football games, and
gossiping about boys? This doesn't sound like a
lot of fun, does it? You girls may think about
this and decide there are no advantages to an all
girls's chool, but in reality, all girls's chool's
have many. Believe it or not, having boys around
is not the most important factor in our education.

the main characters are faced with negative

Eating Disorders Cosmetic Surgery

Introduction Humankind has always been aware of
the existence of beauty. As our species has grown
intellectually and socially, the standards that
constitute beauty have changed to suit our
culture. Females, in particular, are given more
focus than males when it comes to appearance
(Jackson, 1992). For instance, cosmetics cater
almost exclusively to women and while they are
considered a luxury, they have come to represent
more of a grim necessity for females (Hansen

Psychology experiments are usually long,
painstaking surveys and tests that sometimes take
years to complete. They do, however, give us some
insight into how the human mind works and develops

Deciphering the information these experiments
generate is sometimes just as hard as performing
them, and to a person with no background in
psychology it is almost impossible. The following
three experiments were found on the APA website

Someone once told me that life is not always fair;
that some days are better than others are. Men do
not care for this rule and we want everyday to be
great, perfect and full of joy; but deep down we
know it cannot be. We refuse to accept the
unfairness of life though; we resist in our own
unique ways to every bad thing that happens in our
lives. We have been known to resist violently,
lashing out at others in rage; and we have been
known to bear the pain ourselves without rage and
violence. Eit...
