The taxi driver dropped me off at Nana, or NEP, which is short for the Nana Entertainment Plaza, a three-story complex of go-go bars and beer bars. Complete with flashing lights and scantily clad women, Nana looked every bit like the seediest part of Las Vegas, only with more T and A. Being male through and through, I walked through each and every establishment on autopilot, consuming bottle after bottle of Heineken and an equal number of shots of Tequila. The scent of vagina was everywhere, or maybe I was just imagining it, and I scoured the playing field like a lion in search for a lioness to satisfy his primal urges. She is out there, waiting for men to find her, ready for any adventure that comes with her business. Every night, she waits, knowing the foreign men are on the prowl, testosterone seeping into the night, searching impatiently. By 3AM, the bars were emptying and I was standing in front of the Nana Hotel, watching the procession of whores make their way out to the street.

“I don’t know. How much?”
“Short-time, 500-baht,” she said, giggling. “You hansum man.”
“What about your friend? Can I have you both?”
They turned and looked at one another, laughing.
“No problem! You like my friend, we go with you! Where you stay?”
The fullness in my loins was growing stronger and the urge to getting naked as quickly as possible was now my sole mission.
“Royal Garden Hotel,” I said. “We can walk.”
As we walked alongside Sukhumvit Soi 3 towards the hotel, I began thinking of everything I was going to do, playing the x-rated video in my mind. I had never been with two women at once but I was confident I could figure out the mechanics.
They were 20 and 22, taut and fit, and once through the door, they immediately stripped off all their clothes and got naked. I thought Thai women were shy and conservative. How wrong I
They way a person reads is greatly influenced by their personal background; their story, their culture, anything that led them to who they are today. When reading How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents written by Dominican-American Julia Alvarez, many controversial points are brought up that can be interpreted in many different ways depending on who is reading. In many scenarios, it’s the matter of where the reader comes from, in this case the Dominican Republic, or the United States. By having written from both Dominican and American perspectives, Alvarez teaches how a character’s sexuality or sexual tendencies can be perceived differently depending on the reader's personal background.
Joan Didion’s essay “Los Angeles Notebook portrays the Santa Ana winds as being ominus, unseen, and foreboding, by having characters in the story view the winds as an omen of evil inhabitants. She also helps to convey this by changing her sentence length and structure to better suit the atmosphere for the effect the she wants her writings to take on the reader. From the start of her writing, Didion did something to make her story more interesting, that really need to be rooted out. She manipulated the sentence structure and changed their lengths to either make them more long and drawn out, or when she wanted to build tension, she would make the sentences increasingly choppy and short-worded. There are many instances

Oftentimes, societal problems span across space and time. This is certainly evident in Julia Alvarez’s How the García Girls Lost Their Accents a novel in which women are treated peripherally in two starkly different societies. Contextually, the Dominican Republic and the United States are very dissimilar countries in terms of culture, economic development, and governmental structure which all contribute to the manner in which each society treats women. The García girls’ movement between countries helps display these distinctions. Ultimately, women are marginalized in both Dominican and American societies where they are treated as inferior and discriminated against as a result of factors including gender, race, culture, and social class.

Her unsuppressed sexuality produces the appearance of a wild and uncontrolled woman, but in her relations with men she proves to be tamed and submissive. She is used, and often abused, by her powerful lovers, firstly, the colonial representative, the Englishman who fathered her child, and, secondly, the new neocolonial delegates: the General and the tycoon. For the renowned movie star, these men were “all the same… Carrying around her used panties as if they were a fetish, like a piece of her they had carved off, like her skin” (Hagedorn,226). Sex, for her, is the means of support, it provides her with luxury and she willingly accepts the price she has to pay in return.
