Anomalies Are Not Always Wrong
... to make him "feel" more like a woman. He also got his name changed to Christine Jorgensen. By using these accounts, it can be understood that these are not "new" fads, but true dilemmas that have their own history.
Transsexualism and transvestism are variations from society's views of "normal" sexual behavior. These variations of the norm are explained as being disorders and are almost exclusively found in men. Transvestism is the activity of cross-dressing for sexual arousal from that specific object, whether it be clothing, shoes, or what. This can simply be called a fetish. The reasoning behind the few cases ...

Treating People Fairly Is A Right That Has Been Changed By Affirmative Action
... individuals should be treated equally and differences in sex or race should not make them competitors.
All races are created equal and should have the same rights. No one group of people should be favored more if everyone is created the same, and by law have the same rights and freedoms. No one person has more rights than another. No matter what is an individuals color, size, intellect, lifestyle, religion or ethnicity, he or she has the same rights as the next person.
Affirmative action was created 30 years ago for the cure of the underuse of minority and female and humane resources in the workplace. Affirma ...

Fitting In
... often observed that people often times try
to find out why that person or group rejected them and try to make it better.
Being rejected is like someone saying "You do not fit in with us so leave us
alone" its a nasty feeling. Some people let others down easy and that is nice of
them.
Why is it so hard to fit in? There is so much social pressure now that
it is getting harder and harder to "fit in". When I say social pressure I mean
how to act, look, sound, walk, and so on. Clothes play a very important role in
fitting in with the crowd. People say that a first impression is the most
important one so people try to ...

Affirmative Action In Florida
... to women and minorities through the current policies establishing hiring quotas, university admission's quotas, favorable loan arrangements, and other favoritism based on race and gender. This is how most would define affirmative action. While the spirit behind affirmative action is in the right place, it cannot be denied that the manner with which it is implemented is ineffective and raises the hostilities between minority and non minority groups to an even higher rate. Affirmative action, as it is instituted today, serves more to divide out society than to unite and equalize it. First implemented to protect the ...

Feminists
... and that not all opportunities are yet
equal. The problem I have with her article is the image that she and other
contemporary activists are coveying to the rest of society.
When I think of a feminist two pictures come into mind. The first,
which maybe a little outdated is a women like Susan B. Anthony, someone
fighting for real issues that matter. The second is of a women like the
author above, someone who is extreme just to be extreme. To my
disappointment it seems the later is becoming more prevalent within society.
After reading the article I scrolled down the page to where it
listed "more feminist links ...

Development Of Communist Theory
... opposing classes; the Proletariats and the Bourgeoisie (Engels, Marx 58). Political power, property so called is merely the organized power of one class oppressing another (Engels, Marx 95). "Communism deprives no man of the power to appropriate the products of society; all that it does is to deprive him of the power to subjugate the labor of others by means of such appropriation (Engels, Marx 86)."
Communists do not form a separate party opposed to other working class parties. There are ten measures needed to convert to communism (Engels, Marx 94). 1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rent ...

Affirmative Action Policies
... liiving. minorites and women have always been a source of cheap labor for employers. to be used when needed and handed over to unemployment when not. In other words higher paying jobs have now and always been filled by white male workers.
Employers have moved millions of jobs to the southern states in past decades because of the lower standars of living in the south. Employers have also moved millions more abroad to areas with even cheaper wages.. millions of these workers now have a job and all the joys of unfair use-long ,a hard, arduous work under very low wages, under very dangerous conditions.--While millions ...

Organization Leaders In The Workplace
... deal with it effectively! And this is showing to be a costly mistake. So let's take a better look at what power actually is. It is the actual expenditure of energy. It could be said that everyone is powerful then, and in most cases some of the worst performers are the most powerful people in the organizations. The poor performer expends their power by doing distractive and counterproductive actions. These people are able to cause you to expend an enormous amount of your energy keeping track or monitoring what they are doing. When employees control a leader's attention for disruptive reasoning, the power being ...

Teenagers
... Punks, stoners, new- wavers, skaters, surfers, and
other similar people fall into this category. The "moderate" sub-species
of the teenager may best be described as the classic teenager, or really a
teenager who epitomizes most of the qualities of a "normal" teenager. This
category comprises the widest range of people and could definitely be sub-
divided within itself. This particular category of teenager is slightly
vague as it can range from teenagers such as "jocks" to "brains". The last
of these categories, the "conservative" teenager describes the class of
teenagers who follow the rules and teachings of ...

United States Of American: Personal Freedom
... respect toward the
freedom of religion. It also prevents the government from "abridging the
freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to
assemble and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." Since
the early history of our country, the protection of basic freedoms has been of
the utmost importance to Americans.
In Langston Hughes' poem, "Freedom," he emphasizes the struggle to enjoy
the freedoms that he knows are rightfully his. He reflects the American desire
for freedom now when he says, "I do not need my freedom when I'm dead. I cannot
live on tomorrow's bre ...
