I am always very nervous to choose the topic of a paper that is worth pretty much half of my grade in a given class. And in this case super nervous cause I don’t want to choose something that I don’t want to write about for seven pages. The episode I am going to choose is the one where Inara sleeps with the virgin. I think that bringing forth the topic of sex in our society will give me a lot to go on as well as the misconception that to become a man sex is some kind of a rite of passage. I will be able to pull in research from many different sources one in particular I want to look into is things such as in the cave men era. Did they really club women and drag them back to their caves just to sleep with them? I will find out. So there is a lot of real world connection I can use. I am still thinking about what exactly my thesis will be. This is normally the hardest part of the paper to put into words for me. I want to somehow incorporate that there is much more to being a man then just having sex as well as bringing up maybe the flip side and discussing that having sex isn’t the way women look at becoming a woman. As well as re-entering the scene between Inara and the young man where his father is persisting his son to become a man and saying that he is an embarrassment and paralleling that with the way our society views sex.
Hey Danielle,
ReplyDeleteThis seems like a topic that sparks my interest in reading the actual paper. I do not think that a guy becomes a man through having sex. In my opinion, the guys that do think that are the most immature out of all guys. There are so many things that are more important that will have people view a guy as a man if he does it. I think you can make a really good argument with this topic, especially because of today's society.
This would be a very good topic to write about. Not only is it broad enough to expand upon and break up into paragraphs leading to several pages, but it also will grab the readers attention.
