"What Women See When They See Hillary" - Article Critique
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. America's unprecedented political maneuver of having a woman run for the nation's highest office is a clear indication of just how far the United States has come with regard to social and political progress. Hillary Clinton has indeed created a legacy for feminists and naysayers alike merely by having her name placed on the ballot. This is not to say, however, that just because a female candidate has finally made it into the United States history books that she is necessarily the right person for the job. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

'Moll Flanders,' 'History Of Misella' And 'The Rambler': How The Role Of Women Shaped 18th Century London Society
[ send me this paper ]
14 pages in length. There has rarely been a time in the history of mankind that women have not had to struggle in order to assert their worth as a gender. From the time when males first declared patriarchal authority over their female counterparts, women have fought – in various ways and with various results – to be treated both equitably and respectfully. Literature has long reflected this perpetual struggle between the genders, most often taking the side that support patriarchal control; however, a slow but steady change began occurring in eighteenth century London society that helped nurture a growing metamorphosis, which included Samuel Johnson 'Rambler' (Misella), Daniel Defoe's 'Moll Flanders' and Frances Burney's 'Evelina: Or, the History of a Young Lady's Entrance into the World.' Bibliography lists 11 sources.

'The Health Practices of Homeless Women / A Causal Model'
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper critiquing Linda Flynn's publication named above, an investigation into both observed and reported health practices of homeless urban women. Where medical records were lacking, the author attempted to estimate the level of health care these women had known previous to their homeless life. Limited to data collection only by self-reporting, however, neither the author nor the reader can be fully persuaded that the research accomplished its intended mission.

10-point Plan To Bring Security And Peace To Homosexuals, Feminists And Abortion Supporters
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. People from all walks of life must endure social intolerance at one time or another; however, certain groups face prejudicial persecution on a regular basis. What is the answer for gays, lesbians, feminists and proponents of abortion that would bring a sense of peace and
security in this lifetime? Is it too much to hope for that social bias begin to wane in exchange for a more understanding and open-minded world? Indeed, what lies at the foundation of all intolerance – be that toward homosexuals, feminists or those who support abortion – is a combination of fear and ignorance, an alliance that not only
precludes the chance for security and peace but one that also encourages just the opposite. Bibliography lists 12 sources.
