Why Woman Smile Analysis

406 Words1 Page

Why women smile”, I consider this as a very interesting essay. However, the statement of “how deep and how much a woman smile can hide” is totally make me feeling uncomfortable, because I do not think we/woman use our “smile” to hide our feelings or anything at this point. Honestly, “hide” is a strong word to me. In fact, smile is generally recognized as a courtesy in our society. What seduction or evil works has to do with woman’s smile? Are all woman‘s smiles coming with “bad” intention? What about a man’s smile? I understand that there could be many reasons behind a smile, but it is definitely a better way to escalate our feeling, sometimes it could be something that we do not want to share (privacy) or we simply cannot share

    111 Words  | 1 Pages

    Amy Cunningham, an editor and author from New York, wrote an article “Why Women Smile” to emphasize on how women are no longer smiling because it is a natural thing, but rather an everyday habit. Coupled with Cunningham’s supported reasons by using logos and ethos, she also uniquely brings in her personal experience by having ethos, making her argument more relatable. A long side with that, societies’ past and present impact on today’s world about women was also included as Cunningham put her own take into proving her point. Although this may be true, there were some fallacies found in her argument leading it to lack of fully portraying the audience.

  • Nonverbal Communication Analysis: Antwone

    702 Words  | 2 Pages

    Antwone matured two meaningful relationships, both with Dr. Davenport and with girl friend Cheryl. It was interesting to see how both relationships advanced due to all the problems that Antwone endured. Overall, these relationships were very successful allowing Antwone to reach his current functioning of intimacy vs. isolation. But these relationships didn’t start off like this, in the beginning of the movie both were very rocky. I would first like to focus on his relationship with Cheryl. Cheryl seemed to indulge in Atwone more than he could with her. At this point in the movie Antwone is very timid and shy when having conversations with Cheryl, there was a sense of detachment. Their conversations were very short and there was barely eye contact made from Atwone when Cheryl tried to have conversation with him. The text discusses a concept called Nonverbal Communication.

    How frequently have you demonstrated your companions and your family a face which doesn't fit in with you? A face which isn't your genuine face? I'm certain we, all, have indicated countenances other than our own to individuals when we initially met them. It could be for the trepidation of their judgment in the event that they discovered who we genuinely are; it could be a feeling of frailty that we're sufficiently bad, or it could simply be a propensity that we get accustomed to it. Concerning, the Egyptian author, Salma Shallash, in her short story, "the other face", endeavors to answer these inquiries: would it be a good idea for us to demonstrate our actual appearances to individuals around us sometimes, or would it be advisable for us to attempt to keep it from indicating far too early?

  • The Wonder Of Girls Gurian Analysis

    Before I started this week’s reading of The Wonder of Girls By: Michael Gurian, I was intrigued and ready to learn a few things about adolescent girls. But then, when I started to read Chapter two of, The Wonder of Girls, a statement that Gurian made stood out to me, “By the end of this chapter, I hope you’ll understand the female mind as you have not understood it before” (Gurian 28). Upon reading this sentence I immediately thought that I should understand the female mind already given my gender—female. Second-guessing myself on what I know about the mind of a female made me realize that there are probably more to the female mind than what I already know or think I know, so I read on.

    In the article “Why Women Smile”, Cunningham evaluates on how societal expectation and personal goal evolves women’s daily behavior; particularly she focuses on the women’s smile. It’s for the better, women weaponize their smile There are too many good examples of female protagonists in the article, one of the best samples- Cunningham cites: “In Japan, for instance, a smile is often used to hide pain or sorrow” (371). The society loyally favors in a “happy” protagonist more than a frowning one. Believe it or not, women are highly intelligent because they manage to cover their true feeling for the societal need-

  • Women's Rights

    One of the most influential writers Adrienne Rich once said, “She is afraid that her own truths are not good enough.” Adrienne Rich talks about women’s role and issues in her essay called “Women and Honor: Some Notes on Lying”. She describes how women during the 1977 lied about everything. They lied about their appearance, their job, their happiness, and even about their relationship. Adrienne Rich is one of the most powerful writers, who identifies herself as lesbian feminists. Her work has been acknowledged and appreciated mainly in her poems. Throughout her decades of work as a writer-activist, Rich uses essays, speeches, and conference papers, magazine, articles book reviews, and personal reflection to articulate with stunning complexity issues of women’s freedom, individual identify and their roles in society. In her essay “Women and Honor: Some Notes of Lying” she articulate that women lie because of patriarchy and should be more truthful; however I partially agree and disagree with her statement. I believe that women today, in 2009 are more independent, self aware, and are careless about their surroundings and who they please.

    2017). The female gaze is used as an attempt to subvert the image of the man being “the bearer of the look” and the “woman as the image” (Mulvey, 1975: 19). Yes, in that specific scene, the belly dancer was the “image” to be looked as we would expect from traditional cinema, however, she was not sexualized in the way a masculine point of view would present her (Mulvey, 1975: 20). What this does is that it feminizes both the spectators and the camera’s point of view from the very beginning, indicating a sign that we will be introduced to events and relationships from a female perspective that would otherwise be unknown to us in the male dominated world of Bent Familia (Mulvey, 1975: 25). This scene is also very important because it tells the
