Hunting

I chose a topic that I ‘am very familiar with and that I think that I could have a strong argument and good reasoning. I chose to talk about hunting and ask the question of “why do people oppose hunting so strongly, what is wrong with it?” I know a lot about this topic because I have been hunting since I was a little girl. I know what is the different between hunting and poaching. I know the proper things that one needs to do to be able to hunt where ever one pleases and I also know the rules and regulations to being a safe and law minding hunter.
The questions that I need to research however are things like, what are the reasons why people despise it so? Why do people care if people are hunting as long as they are doing it lawfully? In what states it this the biggest issue and why? And what are other people’s opinions on why hunting is so wrong? Why is hunting opposed stronger in some states than others, or in some countries than others? Would people rather the hunters stop and let the animal population grow, and eventually be an over population, which would in turn make the animal’s pest? So to conclude my proposal is going to be on hunting and why it is so strongly opposed.

The Men We Carry In Our Minds

After reading the essay, I came to find that Scott made a very compelling arguement on the contrast between the lives of men and women. For example, when he descibes the back breaking labor that most men have to go through and the way that it affects their bodies. He is correct in the sense that most women will never have to go through things like that, but I disagree with him that mens lives are so much harder than men. He makes points about men who go to war and die for their country and he explains how women don't have to worry about that struggle. But what about when the husbands of those woman go to war and leave their wives to maintain the house hold, watch the children, work to make ends meat for her children, sow the feilds, and take care of everything while her husbands away. What about that, Yes women do not have to go to war, but when they are left alone to fend for themselves in a world that mostly revolves around a man, its almost like they are put into a war to survive. He also states that when he attended college he had a women say to him that men were guilty of having all the joys and privledges of the earth for themselves. He responds to this accurately, but he didnt look at the whole picture. He didnt think about how women couldn't vote and men could. How women were not considered equal to men, when they are just as capeable of doin the same things that men can do. Lastly, he also doesnt take in to account all the things that men put women through. For eample, treating their wives like they are dogs and beatin because they arent obeying their husband, or what about men who dont have a job and rely on the women to make the money. Even though he did comment on the fact that men take from their wives and daughters he missed a lot of other key points about what women have to go through and what men do not.
