“To seduce this girl or not?” is a simple question for most men. Andrew Marvell knew very well what the outcome of reciting his poem, “To His Coy Mistress”, would be. Back in the 16th century, when Marvell wrote this poem, women were treated as second-class citizens. Most were uneducated or if they were, it was to an insignificant amount. Women only knew what they were told and what they were told was to benefit a man’s world. The poem does not state whom the Romeo is but it is more than likely Andrew

Condoms The word condom is probably derived from Latin "condus" meaning receptacle. Another explanation is that the gut condom was invented by the English army doctor Colonel Quondam in around 1645 and that the word is a corruption of his name.

The Flea John Donne’s poems are similar in their content. They usually point out at same topics like love, lust, sex and religion; only they are dissimilar in the feelings they express. These subjects reflect the different stages of his life: the lust of his youth, the love of his married middle age, and the piety of the latter part of his life. His poem,’ The Flea’ represents the restless feeling of lust during his youthful days but it comes together with a true respect for women through the metaphysical

Even DeLillo writes that "To consume in America is not to buy; it is to dream," which, according to Letricchia is to say "that it is not the consummation of desire but the foreplay of desire that is TV advertising's object" (Osteen 414).
