.... drink, the commercial shows you a slim, fit person that is the perfect height and weight. Society is led to believe that we will transform into a supermodel if we obtain this same beverage. Sadly, this will not occur because the beauty of the model is due to many different factors other than this drink. Despite this, the question still remains: If she drinks it and looks fantastic, will I be as appealing if I drink it? The author Jean Killone analyzes how advertising affects our civilization. Her opinion is somewhat similar to mine. She believes that we are a blank image, and what we perceive from advertising eventually mold .....

.... culture, more and more children are watching television so they can learn from it because parents are giving them the attention they need. “Forty years of research conclude that repeated exposure to high levels of media violence teaches some children and adolescents to settle interpersonal differences with violence, while teaching many more to be indifferent to this solution. Under the media’s tutelage, children at younger and younger ages are using violence as a first, not a last, resort to conflict,” (Levine, pg. 3). As a child grows, he/she always mimics what a parent does. When a child is learning to speak, the words .....

.... places, and sporting an outrageous hairdo, considers himself very attractive indeed. Yet, so do the tall, smartly dressed businesspersons with their suit, tie, and white handkerchief. Men and women of the Victorian era, when women's ankles were not even permitted to be exposed, would surely be shocked at the revealing outfits that have been donned by members of today's society. In other words, one's perception of beauty is greatly influenced by the surrounding environment and the social groups to which he belongs. Yet, whatever one's perception of beauty, one thing is the same. This is that all have taken great pains about the .....

.... Western thinking, the Muslims have developed their own unique garments to accompany their ideas. The Hijab is an adjective meaning to cover the body and soul in English, and is often referred to when speaking about the Chador. The Chador is the piece of fabric that the Muslim women wear to cover their entire bodies from head to toe. However the Chador’s physical size may vary depending upon each countries ruling.

Ironically the meaning o .....

.... classes. The entire college experience involves parties, football games, and drinking beer with your buddies as well as an education. As you get into the entire experience and enjoy college, you will understand and appreciate what a college offers. The ideal time for college is now more than ever as you also have scholarships and your parents to help with the expensive money arrangement which is needed.

.... of child laborors. One child in a textile mill testified that he began working when he was eight years of age and since that time had been working from six o'clock in the morning to eight o'clock in the evening, with one hour to break at twelve o'clock in the afternoon. Sometimes, when business was brisk he would work a sixteen hour span from five in the morning to nine in the evening. When questioned on how he awoke and was on time for work, the boy said "I seldom did awake spontaineously; I was most generally awoke or lifted out of bed, sometimes asleep, by my parents." A girl who worked in the mines said that she worked from fi .....

.... lets one determine his or her beliefs and doesn‘t try to influence them one way or another. Society by definition means people as a whole not as individual groups. “As more and more people begin to regard loyalty to group as more important than loyalty to country, we get a chilling preview of what the United States might be like if each of us maintains our own culture, if we reject mainstreaming and assimilation, and if in fact there is no mainstream.“1 Multiculturalism can cause racism. Racism is the idea that one‘s race determines one‘s identity. It is the belief that one‘s values, ideals, and morals are deter .....

.... on in their surroundings. The citizens of New York City would care less about the traffic safety and reading the traffic signs. The smell of the city reminds me of the honey roasted peanut stands, a sweet scent of aroma that would often fill up the neighborhood. When I close my eyes and think deeply about NYC, there has been a chime in my head of the messengers blowing their whistles to fight in the traffic while slicing left and right to get to their destination. New York City taxi drivers are the "killers" of the rush hour. Taxi drivers within the city are not afraid to use their horn. I must give a great deal of respec .....

.... be "either a beast or a god." (Aristotle, 557). The soul was naturally higher than the body as it naturally governed the actions of the body. People whose bodies were in control could be hurtful. "… Although in bad or corrupted natures the body will often appear to rule over the soul, because they are in an evil and unnatural condition." (Aristotle, 560). Aristotle wanted to show that when the soul was not in control, the person would be in an unnatural state. Men should control woman according to Aristotle, as it was natural for them to be in control. "The male is fitter by nature for command than the female…" (Arist .....

.... orientation to persons of the same sex." Men and women are obviously biologically different. People of the same sex having intercourse goes against what is biologically natural. Part of the homosexual agenda is to make people believe that homosexuals are the same as heterosexuals when it comes to engaging in sexual behavior. This is absolutely not true. In his book **Cassel's Queer Companion, a Dictionary of Lesbian and Gay Life and Culture**, William Stewart describes some of the sexual activities that homosexuals practice. These include "fisting, when one partner shoves his whole hand up the anus of the other partner;" .....
