“Glass Ceilings and Bottomless Pits : Women's Work, Women’s Poverty”
[ send me this report ]
A 7 page review of the book by Randy Albeda and Chris Tilly. is an expose’ on the numerous societal factors which are facing women today. It is a look into poverty as many of us have never seen poverty, a look at the blatant and sometimes shocking facts of being a poor woman in the United States, the facts of that ever present “bottomless pit”. It is also a look, however, a the so-called “glass ceiling” which confronts professional women in the workplace. This paper contends that while the two scenarios are definitely different, they are inherently related to the same societal factors of the patriarchal dominated society which has been in place for the history of mankind.

“Nest in the Wind : Adventures in Anthropology on a Tropical Island”: A Review
[ send me this report ]
A 5 page overview of the book by Martha C. Ward. This book provides not only insight to the people of the island on which Ward is stationed but also into the mindset and thinking of the author herself. This paper contends, however, that this book is a window into the lives and the experience of the people Ward is investigating, not a reflection of preconceived ideas as to how these people somehow innately fall at a lower echelon on the totem pole than our so-called more advanced society. The author of this paper asserts, however, that there is an underlying issue broached by Ward. This issue is the depiction of gender roles in this primitive society and how these roles relate to the patriarchal domination which has so heavily impacted the world as a whole. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

“The Awakening”: An Analysis of Women’s Roles in Chopin’s Novel
[ send me this report ]
A 5 page review of the role of women in terms of their societal class and race. The author asserts that while there are many peripheral female characters in “The Awakening” each is treated as though she is invisible both by Chopin and her protagonist “Edna Pontellier”.

Not only does economics play a role in that perception of invisibility, so too does race. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

"Fasting Girls: The Emerging Ideal Of Slenderness In American Culture": Overview
[ send me this report ]
4 pages in length. Modern diets of teenage girls reflect the significant pressures placed upon impressionable adolescents. Whether the influence is that of popular culture, athletics or peer pressure, young girls are faced with conflicting information when it comes to how society perceives attractiveness. Joan Jacobs Brumberg's article entitled "Fasting Girls: The Emerging Ideal of Slenderness in American Culture" delves deeply into the reasons why American popular culture has such a stranglehold upon the way in which girls view themselves and the drastic actions they take in order to portray the image of slenderness. Much of the issues with body image and self-esteem manifest themselves in eating disorders, a particularly pertinent concern with impressionable adolescents. Eating disorders, such as bingeing, purging and fasting, are as much a part of adolescent life as Friday night pizza parties and football games. Adolescent females, in particular, are significantly more susceptible because they are keenly aware of their physical appearance, which is oftentimes distorted by an unbalanced self-esteem. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
