A commanding officer doesn’t want to see another petty officer disobey or fail to follow commands. Male soldiers have always been used as the ideal fighting machine, but in recent studies it has been shown that women could possess the same potential as men. As research continues to expand, women are seen to be ideal, if not as equally ideal as a man in battle. In the military there…
assumed that males will always want and have more casual sex (Lai and Hynie). In Storni’s poem, the women are described as pure and untouched. Even though the women that engage in casual sex would be seen as impure during Storni’s time, today the women would be able to engage in sex, as long as it occurred less frequently than her male peers’ sexual activities (run-on sentence?). Two main factors contribute to the idea women desire less casual sex than men, the fact that men are encouraged to…

Female athletes however, are forced to fit a social stigma of what a female should look like, act like, and perform like. Why are there two distinct genders that compete in sport, so far away from each other on the spectrum of masculinity and femininity? Certainly, some athletes fall somewhere…
How fair can it get for girls to play on boys sport teams. Maybe because it’s not a law, everyone can play, so many other girls are playing on the same team as boys. It was never a law that girls have to play the “girl sports,” boys play the “boy sports.” In the article Should Girls be Allowed to Play on Boy’s Sport Teams? They stated that if the best of the best WNBA team goes against the worst NBA team, that the NBA team would crush the best WNBA team. The current worst tennis player could…
“Well the night is dark, the moon is full.The flowers of romance exert their pull.We take awhile, My fingers slip.I’m hard and crackling like a whip.”(third stanza) This magnifies the stanza before and how men act like animals, and do anything for sex.

The man is acting like an animal in a forceful way trying to lie and make love when it…
Sexual interactions with same-sex are widespread among animals, but until now the puzzle remains. One of the animals that exhibit this behavior is the Drosophila Melanogaster or fruit flies, in which this paper will be focusing on. Fruit flies have the ability to reproduce rapidly, tendency for males to mate intensely with immature males (Dukas, 2010). Over the past few years, since fruit flies’ genome are simple, researchers made a constant effort in studying the same-sex behavior in Drosophila…
New Identity: My new identity is a Hispanic/Latina woman between the ages of 35 and 50 (413). Some stereotypical things about a Latina woman are that they are “hot-tempered”, “fiery”, and/or “spicy”.
