sexual liberation In this week’s discussion, it was noted that sexual liberation entails women’s freedom to satisfy or conduct and behave in the way they like to satisfy their sexual desires. Of interest in the definition was that women are allowed to satisfy their sexual desires without shame or fear. Sexual liberation implies that women have no obligation or rules to adhere to when it comes to sex. They have no guilt and cannot be judged about their sexual life. In my opinion, I believe that sexual liberation is no form of equity for women but a way of challenging traditional rules and codes of conduct that controls and keep in check sexual behaviours in society. With sexual liberation in mind, sexuality will take a different direction, and most interpersonal relationships may not last. Despite the negative side of the idea, sexual liberation is suitable for women to control male dominance. I think that women should have some freedom to decide and control their sexual life. If women can professionally manage the concept, then it can be used to give…

why women land in low paying jobs The reason why women land in low paying jobs is because they face stiff competition from their male counterparts. Men have a competitive advantage over women for available job openings because most of their time is dedicated to their career. This is not the same case with women who have other domestic responsibilities. At home, women are supposed to give birth and take care of the children while men have their entire time strengthening their careers. Another reason why women get low waged jobs is traced back to the history of women education. Until the 20th century, women’s education was not given priority like men’s education. It was until late when the society realized that an educated girl is more productive than an uneducated man. In the past, women had little or no qualifications for the available jobs because they lacked formal education. A lot has changed today in our society, and women almost have the same formal education as men. With a high number of females with educational qualifications, it is forecast…
Chronicles of a Selfless Woman I believe the best human satisfaction is to achieve you’ve always aspired in life. I, PFC Cuevas, am the last born and the only girl from an initial family of four. Ever since I was a kid, I have always dreamt of joining the military and serve the nation, especially in the marine. It was a scary dream since it is a male-dominated job, but deep within me, I wanted to achieve my goal. Thus, I maintained a proper diet, kept body fitness, and work hard in school. Finally, the day was here, and I was supposed to leave for the boot camp. It was an emotional day of sadness and deep thoughts since I was leaving my mum and brother behind. Three months ago, my dad succumbed to throat cancer. It was a heartbreaking experience, and I felt life was not worth living. But my father would always remind me that I’m a strong girl. This would give me the morale to push on. The day he died was my worst day, my source…
Here I am. We are seated at the rooftop of a building in this seedy neighborhood. My brother, brash and outspoken lad, and yours truly, who often has less to talk about save for the pages, happens to have kicked off our separate lives away from our folks in this damned city. Circumstances back at home couldn’t contain us anymore; we failed in urbanizing the place to suit our needs. Furthermore, we left campus for home and realized that we had outgrown most of our apparels, indicative enough that we were to get going. And that is how we ventured on this journey of learning to fend for ourselves as we shape up for rainy days. So we are trying to unpack our bags of experiences and align them with the available survival apparatus as we bask in an atmosphere of nothingness presented to us by life. But then my bag seemingly has minimal experiences from which I can create a variety of options. So we concluded the little chat as I held on to the thought that I was…

Battle of Sexes The battle of sexes was the chosen game in this case. The game is a two-player coordinated game, with a column player and a row player. For a better understanding of the game, one could use a couple named Jack and Jill. Jack plays basketball while Jill loves opera. While deciding on data, they can either choose to go to opera or the basketball event. Both players prefer to go to the same place. Assuming that the players would not communicate, where would they go? The dilemma presents the basics of the game, in which the two players want the same results. The following payoff matrix represents the battle of sexes. The game makes the assumption that the couple does not have any form of communication with each other. They know that there are two options that they are meant to decide on, but they cannot directly talk to each other. In that regard, it is a challenge for either of them to decisively make their way to a certain destination since they face the risk of…
