Boys Should Learn How to Cook
"It Ends Tonight"

Your subtleties
They strangle me
I can't explain myself at all.
And all the wants
And all the needs
All I don't want to need at all.

The walls start breathing
My mind's unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone.
A weight is lifted
On this evening
I give the final blow.

When darkness turns to light,
It ends tonight
It ends tonight.

A falling star
Least I fall alone.
I can't explain what you can't explain.
You're finding things that you didn't know
I look at you with such disdain

The walls start breathing
My mind's unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone.
A weight is lifted
On this evening
I give the final blow.

When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.

Now I'm on my own side
It's better than being on your side
It's my fault when you're blind
It's better that I see it through your eyes

All these thoughts locked inside
Now you're the first to know

When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends

When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.

Tonight
Insight
When darkness turns to light,
It ends

    This essay will examine the article ‘Sweet and Sour Served by Kids in the Kitchen’. This article was written by Tim Soutphommasane and published in The Australian on December 10, 2010 (Soutphommasane, 2010a). According to his website, Dr Soutphommassane is a left-wing, political philosopher and commentator. He is a University of Sydney Postdoctoral Fellow at the Institute for Democracy and Human Rights and School of Social and Political Sciences. He has been a regular columnist for The Australian for ten years. He also writes for the Melbourne Age (Soutphommasane, 2010b). The Australian is a national daily newspaper with a circulation of about 129,363 and a readership of 417,000. It also has an online edition (Space, 2013). This essay will critically examine the arguments in the abovementioned article and, assess the strength of these arguments against theory. The article is an opinion piece about the reality television show, Junior Masterchef. Based on the highly successful Masterchef format, young male and female contestants aged between eight and 12 participate in cooking challenges. At the conclusion of each episode, one contestant is eliminated from the show based on their performance in the kitchen and their execution of the cooking challenges. In the ‘grand final’ one contestant is crowned ‘Junior Masterchef’. According to Soutphommassane, the show attracts 1.5 million viewers on a Sunday night and is one of Australia’s most popular cooking shows. It is also syndicated to other networks around the world. Clearly, it is a ratings winner for the television network. While 1.5 million Australians watch Junior Masterchef, Soutphommassane article shows he is clearly uncomfortable with the concept of the show. In his article, he uses all three persuasive techniques: logos or logical arguments; pathos or emotive arguments and ethos or credible arguments (Eunson, 2008). He starts by questioning the ethics behind Junior Masterchef. He disagrees…

    Through his interviews, Jenkot discovered that there are very distinct and specific jobs or roles in the process of producing methamphetamine. In a methamphetamine-producing group, there is a spectrum spanning from highly respected roles to roles not respected at all. Most commonly, a member of a meth-producing group may start out with an undesired role and slowly work his or her way up to a more respected position, depending on his or her success at their previous position. The most desired position within a methamphetamine-producing group is the “cook.” The cooks hold the power, because they are continually providing the desired good, meth. In exchange for their creation of the drug, cooks are constantly waited on, given whatever they want—food, technology, sex, etc.—by the rest of the group. Immediately beneath the cook is the Gas Man or Juicer. Jenkot’s interviewees reported that Gas Men are also highly respected and important to their group, but their job is much more…

    CJPascoe showed some very important findings when it came to boys showing masculinity and power. The first finding is when she is watching the skit that the boys made. The revenge of the nerds. It addressed masculinity because two teenage boys come out and had nerdy clothing on finishing off the look with their glasses taped together. The crowd was laughing at them because of their appearance and right away one can infer that the crowd finds it funny that the boys are being effeminate just because of the nerdy look. Then the boys lose their girlfriends to the gangsters because compared to the gangsters they look soft and weak. The nerds then decide they must lift weights to become masculine to get their girlfriends back. Mid skit the crowd…

    In this essay I discuss that "doing gender means creating differences between girls and boys and women and men...." (West & Zimmerman 2002:13) I am concentrating on the female perspective, how societyputs forth expectations of what is 'natural' or biological even though, in some cases, it can be quite demeaning and degrading. I am using some examples from the local media and also a few childhoodexperiences that have helped me to now strongly suspect that the quote from Simone Beauvoir (1972) "One is not born a woman, but rather becomes one" most likely has quite a bit of truth to it.…

    Most people think that gender roles are genetically ingrained upon our brains and that naturally we just follow them, but very few people actually know that gender roles are bad for children. The University of Warwick did a study that followed the interactions of a group of 14-year-olds for three months. The doctor that controlled this study, Dr Maria do Mar Pereira, said that “Young people try to adapt their behavior according to these pressures to fit into society. One of the pressures is that young men must be more dominant – cleverer, stronger, taller, funnier – than young women, and that being in a relationship with a woman who is more intelligent will undermine their masculinity”(Holloway). Even from a young age, children try to fit themselves…
