Mars And Venus
I am following up on the book of , "Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus." by
John Gray. "Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus" was been a very interesting
book. The book brought up some very interesting facts about both sexes. While also
remaining very general to cover basically everyone and simple for everyone to understand.
So simple in fact that I saw everything in there as being common sense; but also at the same
time being hidden from the obvious senses.
In the past the news has done interviews with John Gray and his recent students. It has
basically shown that whoever who has gone to John Gray for advice in a troubled
relationship has came out as basically a new couple. I find it hard to believe for one man to
have all the answers. Also why is he seems to be the only one with the answers? Why are
all the other men in the dark about women? Why are so many women in the dark about
men?
Now I will look into the book to see just what makes John Gray so good in the field of
opposite sexes. I am just going to sum up the points in the book. Right off the bat Gray
states that we men are from Mars and Women are from Venus. Gray states out the
tendencies Martians tend to have. Also he states out how the Venusians are like in their time
in Venus. But the interesting part is he states out these qualities by giving the two different
stories of origins. Gray lets us know that "Martians" and Venusians are of two different
species. And that to start loving one another we have to except these differences and learn
more about the other race.
One difference is Martians and Venusians speak different languages. "The Martians and
Venusians l...

...out? The ones that can not be cut out are the ones that
are crucial to the relationship.
In the end John Gray has proven himself enough to me to see that he is truly a Martian
who knows what he is talking about. It just doesn't fail to amaze me that he knows so much.
But is it because John knows so much is because he can sit around and think about it.
Would it be easy for him if he had to apply his own ideas to himself? I don't know. Talk
and action are two entirely different things. Or maybe his Venusian relationship is going
extremely well because he knows his grounds. Well after my survey done all I can conclude
is "Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus".

The painting clearly shows Mars and Venus being tied together by a cupid. So I can see why this is the most popular translation of this painting. My personal response was really strong after seeing the painting for the first time. As soon as I saw this painting I knew that it had a deeper meaning to it; and not just some people being tied together by a cupid. I knew right away that it had to do with Roman mythology just from the names. After looking at this painting for a while there is still something that the artist is trying to portray, that is really tough. It feels like there is more going on than what seems. The painting has such a calm tone to it but it gives a little hint of roughness with the sword and the horse, which I think, helps to balance this painting.
From the beginning of society, men and women have always been looked at as having different positions in life. Even in the modern advanced world we live in today, there are still many people who believe men and women should be looked at differently. In the work field, on average women are paid amounts lower than men who may be doing the exact same thing. Throughout the novel, Their Eyes Were Watching God, Zora Neale Hurston brings about controversy on a mans roles. Janie Crawford relationships with Logan, Joe and Tea Cake each bring out the mens feelings on masculine roles in marital life.
David starts out by telling us about the general attitude of a Know-Nothing, stating that

In conclusion, Burroughs presents two Martian races that are largely different to validate that all races are created equal and the differences in abilities result from cultural disparities. Burroughs’ focus on race in this novel is critical as it serves as a reaction against the biological racism fueled by eugenics in the 20th
...spect differently and side with their respective sexes. Glaspell intends these men and women to be representatives of their sexes. She shows the differences between men and women and their pros and cons. Most importantly, Glaspell shows the reader that the differences between men and women are definitely not "trifles".

...appearance with a sense of revulsion and harshness, which shows the differing nature in which males are able to evade serious repercussions as well as responsibility whereas females are left for judgment. In this way, the text appears to lower the significance and value of having knowledge and being informed while simultaneously highlighting the deceptive and complex nature that lies within each individual.
Venus’s standing inside a large pearl colored seashell with golden edges, represents female genitalia giving a symbolic birthing scene, and has been blown ashore by Zephyors and Chloris who’s floating above the sea on the right of Venus.
