I need a topic for my "creative voice" project in my Humanities class! Help!
Idea's along what I'm looking for (but can't use):
Masculinity in the 21st Century
Are women the new men?
Education as a civil rights issue.
Race as a function of language no biology

just to name a few....now help!

Are women the new men?

That explains a lot of what I see at Walmart....

[Melody]

What about societies admiration for self mutilation from Tibeten monks setting themselves on fire to tatoos/ cosmetic surgery.

Femininity coming full circle, women's dissatisfaction with living like men in the career world.

[mini]

Mens dissatisfaction with women constantly out preforming them in eating contests.

[Melody]

BOL!

[MsJennJenn]

Serious answers people! Serious answers!

[mini]

That is serious.  Every time I see a 100# woman put down 4 slabs of ribs and all the fixins, it makes me question the equality of gender.

These were serious answers, and I think the second one would be a great one.

Or try "McMansions unsatisfying as fulfillment of the american dream."

From good ole Wiki:
"A McMansion is a large house in a sub-division of similarly large houses, which all seem mass produced and lacking distinguishing characteristics, and at variance with established local architecture."

How about the breakdown in family values and the role it plays in social decline?

How about the breakdown in family values and the role it plays in social decline?

Perhaps. Can you give me a catchy "title" that says that but instead of that? lol

I like this idea...something to tie in family values, and marriage. And the decline of it in our society.

I have to in Step 5 (i think of this 7 step process) interview 5 people...and one of them has to be a "expert" in my topic. I could interview my Pastor for that! ha....I'm trying to think if anyone I know has a "degree" in this field.

Here are the steps to this project I have to do:
1. Write an Abstract (basically introducing my idea to people)
2. Create a survey (using surveymonkey) of 10 questions, and get 25 people to take it, and write about the results
3. Interview (5 people, one has to be an expert in my topic), video the interviews, and transpose them, and write about the results
4. Annotated Bibliography (summary of my research)
5. Biographical Sketch (to tell the audience about me to get my world and my topic)
6. Peer Feedback Discussion Board (post on my class website for peer feedback)
7. Creative Voice Presentation (basically compile the above 6 steps into a fancy presentation: research paper, collection of poems, a PowerPoint presentation etc etc...something along that)

This is all due by December 5th!
F r eaking out!!!!!!!!!

Segregation vs. Congregation, how the the church accomplished what the civil rights movement fell short of.

For minis:  Parental demoralization directs social standard.

Along that same line... How Darwinism leads to abortion leads to Holocaust.  (true story)

Obfuscation (or beclouding) is the hiding of intended meaning in communication, making communication confusing, wilfully ambiguous, and harder to interpret.

[mini]

Eschew obfuscation about family matters, espouse elucidation about family matters.

Actually, obfuscation is one of the stupid words burned in my head.  Its right there beside Mahershalalhashbaz...the longest name in the bible.
