What i want in a woman? I think it's subjective,we all have different traits,mannerisms(even idiosyncrasies)we all picture mentally,when we think of our ideal woman. Some of us are absorbed or even obsessed with their physical endowments(secondary sex characteristics,curves,glowing skin,glossy hair,looks and gait),some their cognition(perception,learning,reasoning and decision making),general intelligence and finally the banal and hackneyed "CHARACTER". Some want it all, which in the contemporary world and especially our society is regarded as unattainable and unrealistic. We all(@ least once in our lives)fall into this category,but growing up we're taught to disassociate ourselves from unrealistic goals,urging and promoting dispositions encouraging us to desist from such thoughts and aspirations. Also life experiences undeniably play vital roles in strengthening those internalized thought patterns. We date a girl with one attribute we particularly crave just to find her lacking in another aspect we didn't initially consider or overlooked it's importance. We somehow believe that no one has it all and encouraged to choose between two or more distinguishing attributes(like character and beauty) inadvertently insinuating that a lady can't be overwhelmingly beautiful and still have the morals and propriety similar to that of the "biblical virtuous woman"

I desire an ambitious,intelligent and beautiful woman(not necessarily a trophy wife but that won't hurt either,though the bible regards beauty as fleeting). An achiever who isn't solely dependent on her spouse for financial support and definitely not one that look towards her insecurities and financial inadequacy with every little spat and squabble. An emotionally mature and stable woman that we can both depend on each other for emotional support and when all fails can bring something uplifting and helpful to the

Sorrowful Woman

...Sorrowful Woman 1. FIRST RESPONSE. How did you respond to the excerpt from A SECRET SORROW and to “A Sorrowful Woman”? Do you like one more than the other? Is one of the women – Faye or Godwin’s unnamed wife – more likable than the other? Why do you think you respond the way you do to the characters and the stories – is your response intellectual, emotional, a result of authorial intent, a mix of these, or something else entirely? Both writings were very well written and very enjoyable to read. “The Sorrowful Woman” and A Secret Sorrow were similar, although they were very different, due to the inner sorrow they both faced. I enjoyed reading A Secret Sorrow more than “The Sorrowful Woman” due to the fact that I was able to somewhat feel what Godwin’s unnamed wife was feeling. I responded to the characters in an emotional way. I found myself able to sympathize with both Faye and Godwin’s unnamed wife. They both have very deep issues, but being a mother myself, makes me have more empathy for Faye. I could not imagine what it would be to want to push my child or husband, nor could I imagine not being able to have a child of my own. 2. Describe what you found appealing in each story. Can you point to passages in both that strike you as especially well written or interesting? Was there anything in either story that did not appeal to you? Why? In A Secret Sorrow, I found Kai’s love for Faye most appealing. He did not look at Faye’s inability to have children not as a...

I Want a Husband

...I Want a Husband Every woman wants what she thinks is the perfect husband. Not every woman wants the same thing in a man. Some women want a man who is a little rough or some want a man who is college educated. A few things all women can agree upon is we all want a man who is gives attention, committed, a good provider, great listener, educated, and handy around the house. That is just to name a few things us women want in a man. When I think of what the world says a good man is to me it is like they are looking for the perfect man. To me the perfect man cannot be found every man has there flaws. You just have to find the man with the flaws that you can deal with. Every good man is not college educated; but they know how to get up and go to work to make an honest living. To find a man that is educated is a good thing that means that they are on your level and can keep up with you. Education is important to every woman when it comes to finding a husband, because you know that their values are in the right place if going to school is important to them. What woman you know wants a man that is not committed to them. If a man cannot be committed you might as well say there is not a relationship. Woman want to know that they are the only one in a man's life. Women like to know the man is not out and about doing things that he should not do. When a man is turns into a husband commitment is important. No woman wants to find out that her man was not committed totally to her...

...family/privately owned alcohol company in the world today (Andrew Sorkin_). I would say Bacardi’s advertising plays a big part in making them as successful as they are. Before I talk about their advertisement, you’re probably wondering who the Bacardi’s are and how they became as successful as they are today. The Bacardi’s are one of the most successful rum companies in the world today. The company has been a part of the family for many of generations. According to Suzanne Mcgee, the company was first founded by Done Facundo Bacardi and then just went down the line from there (1). They fled from Cuba after being exiled from the leader of Cuba and went to about 18 different countries before they finally ended up and stayed in Puerto Rico (1). They said that being exiled led them to strive and drive to expand their business (1). Although Puerto Rico was their main site of production faculty, Bermuda is the location of their legal headquarters (1). Ever since they had started their business, they have been on top as one of the leading rum companies all over the world. As said before, I believe Bacardi’s success comes a lot from their attention grabbing advertisement. There is one ad that had really caught my attention and made me want to try the beverage for myself. The ad is one that they made to celebrate their 150 years of business and success. The appearance of it is supposed to be made to look as though it’s from...

Iceberg Theory: Omission, Inference, and Self-Reflection

...by American writer Ernest Hemingway. In his theory, Hemingway states that a good way to attract the reader is to depict in a single representative scene the entire story through subtext from which the reader then deduces the drama (Wood 1). His use of the Iceberg Theory was presented clearly in the short story, “Hills Like White Elephants” in which Hemingway depicted a vague conversation between a man and a woman named Jig. By only portraying the surroundings such as the hills and the station, as well as providing the short conversation, Hemingway has given the reader a chance to be the narrator to self-interpret the couple’s feelings and thoughts as well as to infer the drama the couple was facing of whether or not Jig would get an abortion. Hemingway used three main symbols which were the hills, the white elephant and the railroad station to develop the theme of the whole story. The theme here is about how the woman saw the possibility of keeping her child and having a happy life while the man fails to see the possibilities and tried to persuade her to go through with the abortion. In this story, the hills symbolized the obstacle that the couple was facing which was having or not having the baby. Although hills are a big hindrance which everyone must climb, from the point view of the woman, the hill was beautiful and she looked at it as a spectacular view instead of an obstacle; “They’re lovely hills” (Hemingway 2). “..Across, on the other side, were fields of grain and trees...

...like to use symbols to hide what he means. The story takes place at a fancy Italian hotel. The hotel room faces the sea and a garden with a very desired war monument, which Italians come far away to see. The hotel has good service for example when the woman goes out for the cat and then the hotelkeeper takes care of the woman by sending the maid out with an umbrella for her. “…. an umbrella opened behind her. It was the maid who looked after their room. You must not get wet” (S. 1). In the whole story it is raining a lot “It was raining a lot. The rain dripped from the palm trees” (S. 1). It’s a symbol of their relationship. It is very important that the woman doesn´t get wet. “Do not get wet, he said.” - “You must not get wet” (S. 1). Rain is a main factor for facility, and when the woman doesn’t get wet, it means that the relationship is under a conflict. George said don’t get wet to the woman. It symbolizes that he doesn´t want to do something. Maybe he is satisfied with how relationship goes on. Another symbol is the cat. The cat symbolizes a baby. She wants to protect the cat, like it was her own baby. “The cat was trying to make herself so compact that she would not be dripped on.” (S.1). Again it relates to their relationship, and tells that it could be better. The woman just wants something she can take care about, because she has nothing in common with her husband George. You can also say, the cat is a personification of the woman herself. She is like the little...

...to black woman. It's a self-love feminist anthem, that showed that Tupac care about the woman in his community. The message of the song is conveyed clearly and concisely, and although it uses similes, metaphors, symbolism, and other literary devices to get the point across, the message is very clear. The song is very upbeat and positive, like it is a song to uplift people, particularly the black woman. It meant to say, life is gonna get better, and no matter what happens you just gotta keep your head up. Song Interpretation The first verse tackles the abuse black woman face from black men, questioning their actions.

Having a child and wanting a child are to two very different things.

Relationship on Love

...relationship its a funny thing really. Understanding the mind will give you a closer look at relation the SHIP is simply who you want on your ship. We all learn Love through the feelings we have in our childhood. From watching our parents our siblings and friends to watching love movies, Love songs, even from the dirty little adult films we watch growing up. It builds us to be the adults we are today. People tend to think a woman behaves like women and a man behaves like men. I disagree Men and Women both act the same its just in any relationship a Woman has more "pull" for she is a woman. Regardless of what religion tells you what I do know is every human being on this planet came from a Woman yes ladies even you. Men we sometimes have a hard time dealing with this because there are women who take advantage of the fact. So with religion its simply balanced to say a woman was made from a mans rib. A woman wants love but response to a man being disrespectful or not interested balanced with a "I love you". A man wants love but response to a woman when she pushes him away or steps on his love like its not good enough balanced with a I'd like you to try harder. From both perspectives its simply a tomato twomato thing. Truth is we get scared to Love some one so much because we don't want to over power that feeling on others in our life we love such as family. So what is the balance of over Powering love, well thats easy something to revolve around, such as hobbies, kids, gossip, knowledge...

Concept of Liberty and Femininity in the Yellow Wallpaper and the Awakening

...Yellow Wallpaper and The Awakening I decided to examine the concept of femininity and liberty in a short story “The Yellow Wall-paper” from the American writer Charlotte Perkins Gilman and in the book “The Awakening” from Kate Chopin. I chose these two books in order to demonstrate how society in the nineteenth century treated woman and how those woman were trying to escape from this concept. Femininity refers to set of behaviours and roles which are appropriate for women and judged by certain culture. In the nineteenth century were women expected to stay at home and wait for their husbands´ return each evening. Women should have these four attributes: piety, purity, submissiveness and domesticity. (Rula Quawas,2006) Women who had these attributes were considered happy and satisfied. It was also believed that there is a sharp line between home, the woman sanctuary, and the economic world because it is a hard world only for men. The Yellow Wallpaper The story begun with moving of the main hero and her husband to the colonial mansion. Her husband´s name is John and he is a high standing physician. They moved for a while because she had to undergo a rest-cure. This method of treatment of the main hero of The Yellow Wallpaper is Dr. Mitchell´s rest-cure for women which included no intellectual stimulation and no writing. Her brother is a physician as well and agrees with her husband, but she doesn’t think that the way they cure her is right. “So I take phosphates or phosphites –...

Final Paper Engish

... March 9, 2015 Women are being judged by the way that they may become pregnant. The society looks down upon women woman that may have babies that are from a relationship that either did not last long or I just did not mean anything to them. Jig was with an American and she did see the baby as the white elephant and that she did not want the cost to raise a child she did not see that the child would be a addition to her life drinking and the way that she wanted to travel. The similarities between the hills like white elephant and no name woman would be that both of the women became pregnant with a child that came from a relationship that was just not meant to be or that did not last long. The differences between both of the texts would be that Jig wanted to abort her baby while the aunt in the other text did give birth and then committed suicide. Each of these stories has conflict, they are imaginary, and they have some rising action. The two differences that were between the two texts were that Jig wanted to have an abortion just so that she could go on with her life like she did before she had gotten pregnant. In the other text the aunt did have her child and then committed suicide because she did not want to be a disgrace to her family for having a baby out of wedlock. Also another difference would be that aunt after she had the baby because she lived in a Chinese village where that went...

People want to be like the people in the Media, Stereotyping of African American in the media, newspapers, television, movies, magazines and music videos are where people get these images of what African American women and men look like, these are the vehicles used to alter and form their perceptions. The media has a powerful influence in the everyday thoughts and lives of Americans. The way they depicted what African American wears and who they are. I want to be sexy and pretty and want all the people to lust after me The American media, in particular, and Western media, more generally, are charged with glamorizing and perpetuating unrealistic ideals of feminine beauty. This is the state of mind the media wants to develop. But is any of this real? Why are women sex objects in the Media? Why is beautiful defined by hair and body structure and skin tone? Why are couples more loving when they are Caucasian and seen as angelic. But African women don’t look pure or innocent; they look like whores in the Media. Why is it that African American women attributes are made so they look like a sex toy? The Caucasian woman looks like the women a man takes home to mom.

Awakenin

...patriarchal society. In her three works The Awakening, “A Point at Issue” and “Wiser than a God”, she portrays women who have taken on different types of female roles. Per Seyersted calls these roles the “patriarchal woman”, which I choose too exemplify by Mme. Ratignolle from The Awakening, the “modern woman,” who Seyersted exemplifies by Eleanor from “A Point of Issue,” and the “emancipated woman,” who Seyersted exemplifies by Paula from “Wiser than a God” (Seyersted 102-105). One can say that these women have accepted and internalized a female role in society, by either following the rules of patriarchal society or breaking them. Edna, the protagonist of The Awakening, is a woman in search of her female identity. She is uncomfortable in her role as the “patriarchal woman” and has trouble obtaining either of the other two roles. This essay will focus on Edna’s inability to find her female role. Comparing her to the three other types of women in Chopin’s works, I will show why she cannot conform to any one of these roles, and how the resulting suicide is a conscious choice very much in character with Chopin’s portrayal of her. To understand Edna’s role in society and that of the women whom she is compared to one must first know what a patriarchal society is and what it means to internalize this system. Patriarchal society can be defined “as any culture that privileges men by promoting traditional gender roles” (Tyson 83). The word...
