Peggy Orenstein Girls Rhetorical Analysis

allocation will better the world not only for us but the children of the future.

It is easy to disregard the lives of others, especially of those outside one’s own, but does the fact that, tonight, several thousand children will restlessly work while the adults sleep not raise concern? Florence Kelly was a United States social worker who advocated for child labor laws and the improved working conditions for women throughout the early 1900s. During a speech to the National American Woman Suffrage Association Kelly skillfully employed the rhetorical strategies of imagery, pathos, and anecdote in order to sufficiently inform her listeners of the horrendous working conditions that many children were forced to endure.

This short story wrote by Barbara Lazear Ascher a woman who describes with explicit details her thoughts and feelings of the participants in the streets of New York. The author uses rhetoric elements such as Pathos, Logos and Ethos to convince her audience that compassion is not a characteristic trait, it is developed within ourselves.

On June 13, 1994 Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were found murdered outside of Browns condo. The police suspected OJ Simpson to have committed the crime seeing Mr. Simpson had attacked Ms. Brown previously. It was clear that Mr. Simpson committed the crime jet a jury of 10 women and 2 men found him not guilty (9 of the jurors were black, 2 white and 1 Hispanic).

In 1905, a United States social reformer named Florence Kelley fought for child labor laws and improved working conditions for women. In July 1095, Kelley delivered a speech on child labor (and other topics) while in Philadelphia as a part of the National American Woman Suffrage Association convention. Within the speech, Kelley uses many notable rhetorical devices, which will be analyzed in this essay.

In the beginning of the first paragraph, there was an intentional structure that created a pace and emphasized important ideas. Within this structure Goodall utilizes specific diction such as "disruption, killed, and death" to appeal to the readers emotions. Also when Goodall uses the word "their death" (paragraph 1, last sentence) she makes a direct allusion to the victim. Throughout the text Jane uses the words "manner of creatures "(paragraph 5, 5th sentence) to appeal to the reader's logic. She mainly uses these words to provide the readers with more information and to make sure their sentiments are going in the right direction. At last Goodall opens with a rhetorical question to make the readers think about the issue and not make them feel excluded.

In Florence Kelley’s heart wrenching call for awareness of child labor she uses quite a few rhetorical devices. An anaphora is the most recognizable as she’s trying to nail in how she would could be helping the children. Pathos is another of her persuasion methods used in her tone. Kelley also uses a fair amount of imagery throughout the passage.

Jack: Hey It 's your host Jack Payant. I’m accompanied with Andrew Weske and Cyrus Choisy-Madon.

This passage really stood out to me because it is a fond and genuine moment between two characters that often come across as lost and are exploited incessantly by Russell. The story that Suzanne retells is humorous and preposterous, revealing the personality and the carefree attitude that any ordinary teen should possess. You can see a real warmth and friendship between the two girls, as an episode of something close to normality briefly suspends itself in their portfolio of otherwise offbeat experiences. Instead of running towards crazed situations charged with danger and immorality, the two are simply content with just being typical girls, enjoying each other's company with sunny

“The Problem With Pink” by Peggy Orenstein attempts to convey the message to society that people should not advocate for a campaign that only shows a one-sided opinion: early detection using mammograms will increase the survival rate of breast cancer. It is best to start off stating that Orenstein is also a biased writer(in a way) due to her majority of numerous books about female empowerment. She is known for her wide-ranging feminist writing about everything from princess culture to breast cancer. Therefore, it is inferred that her audience are most likely females and the general public regarding issues affecting women. Overall, this analysis of this article will ultimately reveal the flaws of Orenstein’s

Barbara Ehrenreich describes to us what she believes today’s world thinks about the definition of civility. Her purpose is to argue about the misconception of civility. She believes that “competitive gratitude” is not what having etiquette is about and that it is absolutely absurd to be forced into fake politeness. Ehrenreich uses satire and irony to clearly differentiate between civility and unnecessary flattery.

In her paper, “Who Does the Talking Here?”, Deborah Tannen takes a look at the conclusion of various studies and uses real life examples to bring about a compromise on the endless argument of which gender talks the most.

Deborah Tannen’s essay was for us to understand the significance of communication in the work field. How the simplest verbal functions can be inferred in many different techniques. “Conversation is a ritual” meaning behind these four simple words the way one talks is a sort of a habit, never changing without purposely back on what we say or may say. Deborah gives her audience a powerful statement by using a metaphor that helps describe her essay. Ritual is a word commonly used to explain costumes that continue to represent. She descripts the biggest areas of difficulty in communication between women and men. In the world, male or female, we all have the same basic human needs to be understood by others for communicate. In the essay “But What

The question about whether or not an individual’s identity is innate or acquired, has always been a debatable issue. Some people argue that gender identity is a result of the social context they live in, while others believe a person is born into it. Gender identity is a “person 's subjective sense of themselves as masculine or feminine and is exhibited by the degree to which they act upon their gender roles” (Whalen & Maurer-Starks, 2008). However, based on the current society people live in, it is more likely that an individual’s identity, such as their sexuality, education, and social status are acquired as a result of the social context they live in.

Gender is it a concept or is it made apparent by our DNA when you are born or does it change as you grow older? Often gender is something that society defines at birth. According to society certain gender roles are pre established when we are born. The majority of society believes that if you are born to a specific gender you should adhere to the gender roles while other people believe that instead we may be born to a gender but it does not always decide if you are that gender. Science has proven that just because you are born a male or female does not mean that you mentally see yourself as that gender.
