... tells us that men are always right when it comes to opposition against women. Men in this story are shown to be superior to their sub species, women. It shows us that anything a man does is always right even though it might be wrong, where else a thing that can be considered right, done by a women is shown to be wrong.

In this story men are given a bad role just to make a reader aware of ...
... to a stop sign, he looked both ways before turning left on to the main street. Without a worry in his head he pressed on the gas pedal and began a left turn. Unfortunately the darkness of the evening prevented him from seeing a huge limousine which was slowly approaching our car. In a matter of seconds, the limousine was in our car. We were pushed to the middle of the road and the car made a half turn. The windows blew up and pieces of glass landed on our faces. The driver’s door was smashed and he flew on top of me, as I hit my head on the door. Blood began dripping from my forehead and his face. All the while I was in shock and couldn’t stop screaming ...

... winner of the Pulitzer Prize. An essentially pastoral poet often associated with rural New England, Frost wrote poems whose philosophical dimensions transcend any region. Although his verse forms are traditional--he often said, in a dig at archival Carl Sandburg, that he would as soon play tennis without a net as write free verse--he was a pioneer in the interplay of rhythm and meter and in the poetic use of the vocabulary and inflections of everyday speech. His poetry is thus both traditional and experimental, regional and universal. After his father's death in 1885, when young Frost was 11, the family left California and settled in Massachusetts. Frost atte ...

Marriages were conducted with these words, “I give this women for the procreation of legitimate children...I accept...And I give a certain amount as dowry...I am content.” Clearly the purpose of the women was to bear children. The role of the husband is vague and seems as though he doesn’t play much of a role in the household.

... who they were, where they come from, and what they were like. Wondering was all I had enough guts to do. I’ve never really been very good with meeting new people, well I didn’t have to where I come from I knew everyone. The fraternity has opened new doors for me, I’ve met so many people through them, relationships that I hope will be around for many years to come. I wish everyone thought of fraternities as I do, but that is not the case. They are often thought of as ignorant drunken souls banding together because of common interests, booze. From time to time I get asked how it feels to have to buy my friends, jokingly of course, but it still angers me, be ...

... he liked. The reason I think Holden gets so depressed is because two of the people he names are dead. That's why he is so lonely all the time. Holden finds things in common with Allie and James Castle and since they're both dead he feels, in the back of his mind, that he should also be dead which makes him depressed. Another example of a fall for Holden is when he realizes he can't erase even half the "fuck you's" in the world. This doesn't sound very important, but it is symbolic because he realizes that he can not be the .
