“What Our Mothers Didn’t Tell Us, Why Happiness Eludes the Modern Woman”: A Review of the Book by Danielle Crittenden
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page overview of the contentions presented by noted author Danielle Crittenden. Targeting an audience of women in their twenties, Crittenden analyzes the successes, failures, and shortcomings which she sees as characterizing the lives of her reader’s mothers, those women who stand at the height of the feminist movement of earlier generations, those women who gave up much of the status quo of a woman’s traditional world pursuits in favor of pursuing careers and establishing a type of autonomy from male influence which had never been achieved before. Crittenden examines the conflict between the values instilled by this movement into the daughters of these women and the innate biological drive young women have to form emotional commitments and to parent children.

"Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl" and "The Awakening"
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page overview of the lessons imparted in Kate Chopin's "The Awakening" and Linda Brent's "Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl". The author emphasizes the point that although these books are vastly dissimilar in many respects, they are both 19th century works about women trying to find their place in the world. Edna Pontellier with Linda Brent both manage to do so but not only do they find completely different place, they do so in completely different ways. No additional sources are listed.

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.

A Comparison of the Ideas of Marriage in Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Women”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper comparing marriage in Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” and Mary Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Women”. In a comparison of Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” (1879) and Mary Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Women” (1792), Ibsen tells the story of an unequal relationship in the marriage of Nora and Torvald; an inequality which Wollstonecraft states shouldn’t exist in a marriage. For Wollstonecraft, a marriage is a social contract in which both partners are equal in their education and commitment to the education of the children and the betterment of the social and public life of the state. Without this equal commitment and mutual respect, the education of the children, a priority for the wife, will suffer and it will also lead to an eventual demise in the strength of the ties which exist between the social and public life of the state. Nora and Torvald’s marriage does eventually break down because of the inequality which does exist in the relationship with Nora having little or no control over her own life or the lives of her children’s. Another relationship within “A Doll’s House” which is more consistent with the ideas of Wollstonecraft does exist between Mrs. Linde and Krogstad. Their relationship is built on mutual respect, affection and the equality they offer each other in regards to their hard work and business matters. From Wollstonecraft’s perspective, their relationship would be one that is more consistent with that described in her “Vindication”.
