Whether it be from one’s own parents, or even from the child themselves, everyone experiences judgment. The tendency to shame others or oneself for an attribute, some may be considered a flaw instead of could be a unique characteristic that individual possesses. It is their flame. A flame is what makes someone who they are, yet they may want to extinguish others’ flames. In the music video, “Never Lose Your Flames” by Issues, actors portray teenagers dealing with internal and external conflict…
One of the aims of Feminist Judgments Project is to apply the theory into practice and to show that a case could be decided differently through feminist lens. There are many types of feminisms which include liberal feminism, radical feminism and cultural/ difference feminism, to name a few. Freeman has identified the common characteristics of these different types of feminisms, which include ‘a belief that society, and legal order, is patriarchal’ and that ‘it seeks to analyse the contribution…
Understanding the Misunderstood The three short stories, "Harrison Bergeron" by Kurt Vonnegut, "A Rose for Emily" by William Faulkner, and "A Small, Good Thing" by Raymond Carver each create an atmosphere that is intriguing and manage to deliver a surprise at the end. Each of these stories has very different settings and plot, thus seeming uncorrelated at a first glance. However, there is a unifying theme. All three short stories portray that misunderstanding and judging others in society can…
information at hand. The couples did not know each other, and the normal couple began to ridicule someone else’s physical appearance. For example, one philosophical paper stated, there are “ … two broad classes… "before-the-fact" moral judgments [and] … "after-the-fact" moral judgments… [Before-the-fact judgement] … based on the best information available at the time as to what the moral landscape holds and what its future shape will be” (“Moral Judgement”). This moral judgement is neither good…
Inclusive language means speaking in a way that includes and respects everyone, whether that be speaking about their thoughts and feelings, or their experiences. Speaking inclusively is not holding any judgements about a person prior to getting to know them. This is hard to do as many people unconsciously have judgements about people based on their own experiences. It is also easy to unknowingly offend someone by saying something or doing something they do not agree with. The only way…
“Go ahead and judge me by my weight or my personality, but only I know the truth” (Lina Sultani). Girls today are judged by their physical looks, and for most people now a days it doesn 't matter if women are fat or skinny because they will either be too fat or too skinny. It is just sickening how people can have these kinds of standards towards women 's weight but the matter of fact is that people and society will always have these judgements towards our beautiful women! Being comfortable in…

Unlike the other appetites “intellect can act with judgment which is free” it is the only appetite that can judge what is good. Free will acts upon its own judgements, not from…
people think that society has moved on from puritan like rules, social standards, as well as qualities that happened, shown in The Scarlet Letter, by Nathaniel Hawthorne. But it has not. Today is almost as it was nearly 400 years ago, with the same judgment and hypocrisy passed on people who may have “sinned” or have not held to other people’s standards, which those people may not even keep themselves. The puritan religion was ideally about being as pure as one could be. But in almost all parts…
else’s shoes. It’s trying to understand how someone feels in relation to what’s going on in their lives without any judgment, it’s trying to find a memory in your life that connects to theirs and to put yourself back into that place to really know how they feel. I think empathic listening would be one of the best ways to help someone who is feeling troubled, it requires no judgment as well as understanding, it is said that when a troubled person feels empathy and understood they will feel a…
The first quatrain introduces the girl being judged for the first time. In the first quatrain, the peers of the girl judge her physical appearance and her car. After the establishment that many others are judging her, it segways to her feeling more insecure. She begins to stop opening up to others. Many people think she’s weird because she’s not like everyone else. The girl is not respected by others. In the second quatrain, it shows how she is tired of dealing with judgement. It talks about how…
