Animal Experimentation Is Acceptable
... to repair abnormalities. A final benefit for animals is that
there are over 80 medications that were developed through animal research
for humans but are now used on pets, farm animals, and wildlife.
Another good reason animal experimentation is tolerable is because
sometimes we have to be cruel to improve our well-being. The first example
is that the cruel experiments result in more animals and people surviving
otherwise fatal or paralyzing diseases. The Research Defense Society
stated that 50,000 people fill antibiotic prescriptions, 180,000 people
with diabetes survive because of insulin, 4,000 heart defects are corrected,
and 400 heart and heart/lung transp ...

Defend Or Refute The Statement: "Trapping Should Be Illegal - Then And Now"
... a virtual magnet for settlement: The Fur Trade.
When people heard how pelts of all kinds could be obtained so easily and
sold for so much, the idea of not settling in the new world was ridiculous.
Suddenly settlers came to this "slab of worthless rock" and tried to set up
permanent living there. Even after a few failed attempts the draw of the
fur trade was responsible for the settlement we call New France.
After the first steps toward a permanent colony in the new world were
made, the next steps came in leaps and bounds. The French government was
sending everyone they could to settle in New France. Courieurs de Bois,
began coming to the colony to trap fur ...

Privacy Is The Best Policy
... in four words, how
children follow their parents habits, regardless if they are bad or good.
When parents search through their children's rooms, like search dogs in a
drug house, they don't realize what message they send to their children.
Children would learn from their parents that looking through other people's
property is permitted. If parents don't look through their children's room,
then the child can be having problems that parents don't know about. This
could not realistically occur though. Parents can detect problems with the
children, outside of their rooms. If any mental or physical problems are
evident with the children, then the results would s ...

Bill Brady On Violence In America
... one big dysfunctional family. We now see teenagers taking risks that in another time and place would be unthinkable. And nobody really seems to do anything about it. The muggings, the rapes, all these murders pass us in a blur of recognition.
Television, CD’s, and video games subject kids to violence. By the time a child reaches 18, they have witnesses as many as 26,000 murders on TV. Some of these murders with the shootings and bashings have been said to create a numbness that in return requires even crueler and gorier murders just to induce a flutter a shock. Murder pays- for the sponsors. Rap anthems that glorify gang violence and the brutal abuse of women s ...

Arranged Marriages Vs Marriages From Romance
... the result from romance, is probably the most common form of marriage. In this way, a person has a freedom of choosing their own partner with no forced of family or peers. Acknowledging thus, marriage as a result of love is not just a more popular type of marriage but also is a much more rewarding experience that an arranged marriage.
Dealing with the ideal marriage, the last thing a person should be rationalized is the issue about money. We are all aware that marriage should always accompany of financial issue but we also have to remember that this is not just about financial stability, but also about emotional security. More often than not, have movie stars an ...

Sex And Agression: Whip Me, Beat Me, Make Me Feel Like An IDIOT!
... were looking to their
dominatrix for; and by them humiliating, beating and subduing them the customer
attained a feeling of what they felt was love, something that had probably been
lacking since early childhood. Aggression for the most part was released by the
mistress who, in my opinion, also needed that release of a basic instinctual
drive -- Aggression. This was probably fueled by a subdued hatred for men or to
attain that feeling of power one gets when they conquer something.
Another issue is the cathartic effect this type of expression has as a means
for deterring non-consensual sexual activity. This statement was illustrated
best by the man who had ps ...

Gender Ideology Enveloping Our Society Today
... by gender is a part of everyday life. Gender places individuals in a certain norm that must be followed, for if not followed s/he is in disconnection with society. Lorber illustrates how society’s “gendering,…or successfully [placing] the other person in a gender status,” is a means to not “feel socially dislocated.” (14) Unfortunately, the gender norms that have developed over history are unequal. Women are looked at as the “abnormal” (17 Tavris) of the genders. However, there is no essential difference between males and females. The difference lies in how individuals are raised and rewarded for certain actions. A little boy playing with dolls will ...

Women In Combat
... made a major
contribution to this war effort. We could not have won without them." Leaders
in the field agreed. The Gulf War had the largest deployment of women in the
armed forces in history. These women encountered the same risks as the men they
served with.
In the Persian Gulf, there were no exact positions and all areas were
equally vulnerable, so the idea of safe havens for women was not really
applicable. By many armed forces policies, females are banned from combat jobs
and units, but in the Persian Gulf War females were assigned to battleships,
aircraft carriers, and marine support groups dug into the desert. From their
experience in the Persian Gul ...

Prohibiting Speech That Offends
... the wrong response, well-meaning or not. The First
Amendment to the United States Constitution protects speech no matter how
offensive its content. Speech codes adopted by government financed state
colleges and universities amount to government censorship, in violation of
the Constitution. And the ACLU believes that all campuses should adhere to
First Amendment principles because academic freedom is a bedrock of
education in a free society. No social institution is better suited to
fight bigotry than the university. It can do so in its courses and perhaps
most importantly through the way it conducts itself as a community. We're
not talking ab ...

A Comparison Of The Status Of Women In Classical Athens And Early Christianity
... the play as a comedy, showing how the world might be in the times of the
Peloponesian war if women tried to do something. It was the women's job to stay
home and tend to the house, and never leave, unlike they did in the play, the
women were shown as revolutionaries rising up against the men, women in
classical Greece were never like that.
The activities of women in Classical Athens were confined to "bearing
children, spinning and weaving, and maybe managing the domestic arrangements. No
wandering in the beautiful streets for them." The suppression of women went so
far as to divide the house into separate areas for males and females. While the
wo ...
