Differences in Japanese and U.S. Schools
Overhearing a teacher say "Education for Japanese and American students is mostly the same." got me thinking. Is it really? I did some research on the topic and was shocked at what I found. My research did not support the teacher's statement. First of all, the schools' calenders and curriculums are different.

Language, Gender and Bias in American Culture
Language, Gender and Bias in American Culture Through language, bias has proliferated in our culture against both women and men. Language expresses aspects of culture both explicitly and implicitly.

Gender and Identity in Raymond Carver's So Much Water, So Close to Home
Men are from Mars, women are from Venus. We've all heard the saying, but what does it mean? We are different, that goes without saying. As evidenced in Raymond Carver's "So Much Water, So Close to Home", men and women differ on many key issues of morality, perception, and judgment.

Media and Gender Stereotyping
Media and Gender Stereotyping Marla McConnell As media becomes an ever more powerful force in shaping the world's perception of itself, an individual's struggle to maintain a unique identity and self-understanding apart from media influence becomes increasingly difficult.

How Becoming an Adult Today Differs for a Female Fifty Years Ago
Becoming an adult today differs greatly compared to becoming an adult in the 1950’s. There have been many historical, cultural and social developments since that time.
