Abstract
This paper looks at how the literary French artiste' Colette, in a duet of short stories, "Gigi" and "The Cat", is able to explain some of the sexual nuances that make the sexes behave as they do; perhaps bringing some insight into our own present day relationships.
From the paper:
"Light vs. Darkness, Muslim vs. Christian, North vs. South, Football vs. Oprah, conflicts such as these rage on in our 21st century society. Of all conflicts the one furthest from resolution and the most highly contested seems to be the age-old battle of male sexuality vs. female sexuality. What do the opposing ?dramatis personae? desire? How do they propose to attain it? Are the variances between the sexes really as vast as we?ve been led to believe? Through exquisite prose and imagery, the literary French artiste? Colette, in a duet of short stories Gigi and The Cat, is able to explain some of the sexual nuances that make the sexes behave as they do; perhaps bringing some insight into our own present day relationships ."

Abstract
The following brief review examines Deborah Tannen's article on "How Male and Female Students Use Language Differently" and asserts that the style of classroom communication supports how males learn rather then how females learn. This review argues that Tannen's argument itself is biased towards wanting to show an unfair situation for females.
From the Paper
"Tannen makes some excellent points in this article. Considering the current focus on equal opportunity, the point that one situation for everyone is not necessarily the best way is an important one.
Tannen effectively describes some of the ways that males and females are different, showing how the classroom is tailored to the needs of males. In this description, though, there appears to be a bias. For example, debate and participation are only two aspects of the classroom. Other aspects include written tests, reading assignments and presentations to class. These aspects that may be more suitable to female learning are not discussed."

Abstract
The researcher reviews two male and two female leaders in large global organizations. The researcher examines the long-term objectives, mission, values and beliefs of the organization in an attempt to discern whether female led organizations are more apt to adopt different long- term goals than male led organizations. The paper shows how males and females are likely to perform equally well when afforded the opportunity to take on advanced leadership roles within an organization. The paper stresses, however, that as long as stereotypes exist regarding women's ability to perform adequately within the organizational leadership role, women will continue to struggle to maintain egalitarian representation in the world of corporate society.

From the Paper
"Studies suggest that roughly 79 percent of the female population and 82 percent of the male population believe that men and women manage differently and thus, contribute to the organization's bottom line in different ways (RBI, 2004). This assumes a potential difference in the ways male vs. female organizations lead, including their goal setting preferences. According to recent surveys of 1,000 employees RBI (2004) revealed that more and more women are also breaking into top organizational roles, and within these roles are more likely to be described as either "controlling, approachable or direct" (RBI, 2004)."

Abstract
This paper discusses how much of literature conveys the male-female relationship through the review of three different pieces of literature: John Steinbeck?s ?The Chrysanthemums?, Doris Lessing?s ?To Room Nineteen? and Ernest Hemingway?s ?Hills Like White Elephants?. It shows how all three pieces of literature, attempt to prove that the basic truth in a male-female relationship is that men and women are different, in our habits, in the way we react to situations in life, environmental stimuli and in our attitudes regarding relationships. It examines how through the stories presented, it can be seen that communication undoubtedly plays a foundational role in the development of any healthy relationship and it often serves to bridge the gap between people with misunderstandings, or to solidify a mutual sense of commitment.
From the Paper
"Another story depicting a man and woman relationship is Doris Lessing?s ?To Room Nineteen?. Susan, a married woman, feels a lose of freedom from being a wife and a mother whose days are spent taking care of her family and hardly had time for herself. Because of this feeling, which she was unable to communicate to her husband, she ended up killing herself. She rents a hotel room every afternoon where she spends time alone for herself, and just sits and thinks. Apparently, her husband assumes that she is having an affair. Knowing that her husband won?t understand her feelings, she tells him that she is indeed having an affair. In the end, Susan returns to the hotel room and kills herself."

Abstract
This paper begins by giving a general introduction to crime and its main causes. It then analyzes and examines the multitude of issues related to the abuse of male and female offenders in prisons. In the second part of the paper the writer discusses the nature and extent of this abuse. In the concluding section, recommendations are offered for improving the relationship between male and female offenders and prison officials. This is in order to eliminate or at least reduce the level of abuse of offenders in prisons. The paper argues that only when government, law enforcement officials, and society ensure that offenders have the same basic human rights as non criminals, will the practice of abusing inmates end.
From the Paper
"Few issues transcend all economic, educational, ethnic, occupational, political, religious, and social lines and impact all individuals, either directly or indirectly. Crime is one such issue, affecting all individuals and society, both economically and non-economically. The main causes of crime are relatively simple to identify, i.e., lack of affordable housing, lack of high-paying jobs for lower and middle class wage earners, lack of trust between citizens and police officers, racial tensions, rising unemployment, etc. However, while the main causes of crime are relatively easy to identify, few effective and viable solutions to eliminating and/or reducing crime have been identified and implemented".

Male and Female Cultures, 2008.
This paper looks at the male and female gender as different cultures.

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that two cultures that are quite different, but that have historically been compared and contrasted to one another, exist in the male and female genders. The writer notes that females have consistently struggled to be equal partners within the social order, while males have had the freedom to control the lives of those within their families, community and the larger governmental arena. The writer maintains that differences in culture have shaped the beliefs of those within them and constructed a society that supports the ideology that different genders should have different social standings. The writer concludes that regardless of the battles for equality that have taken place throughout history, the female gender is still a culture that is oppressed and that is fighting to be considered as equal partners with their male counterparts in the social order.
From the Paper
"While women's rights improved to some degree, they have never equaled the rights known to men, nor have women been capable of being viewed as complete equals in the social order. At the current time there are more women controlling major companies in the United States and it is believed that the "glass ceiling" that exists for women in business is being removed. Yet, this situation pertains to only some women and the culture of women is continuing to be oppressed in multiple ways. This includes women that have been left as single parent mothers, supporting the household alone; the extensive numbers of women that are forced to exist in poverty because of a lack of opportunities to change their economic standing in the social order; and the minimal representation of women in the government."

Male and Female Relationships in Literature, 2008.
An analysis of the relationship between the male and female characters in the ancient text, "The Medea" by Euripides and the modern text, "A Doll House" by H. Ibsen.

Abstract
This paper examines two texts, one ancient, "The Medea" by Euripides and the other modern, "A Doll House" by H. Ibsen. It looks at the roles of the two female characters - Medea in " The Medea" and Nora in "A Doll House" and discusses how the relationships between the male and the female characters reflect the relationship of the colonizer and the colonized. The paper examines what such a relationship entails and argues that this relationship can be changed only under extreme circumstances, which require a drastic action on the part of the colonized.
From the Paper
"Both Medea and Nora have challenged the concept of the passive feminine and the gender roles assigned to men and women within our society. The relationships between the male and the female often resemble the relationship between the colonizers and the colonized. The male/colonizer is active, the female/colonized is passive. The balance of power tips sharply towards the male/colonizer. The female/colonized are often the 'Others'; they are weak, simple creatures that need protection and guardianship, provided by the 'naturally' stronger, dominant male/colonizer. Nora and Medea refused to stay in the roles of the colonized and succeeded in freeing themselves from oppression by taking drastic action. Both however, were punished for it, shunned by the society in which they lived and both lost their children."

Abstract
The paper takes a look at how the relationship between male and female has been a defining constant for mankind and humanity ever since its birth. According to the paper, famous couples have concentrated the entire sex war, the immense complexity of the conflict between sexes, on the way a man and a woman could generate the immense energy that could give birth both to creation and creating processes, cultural, artistic or intellectual, and potential negative, destructive forces, evil and malefic influences.

The Legend
From the Paper
"As previously mentioned, Frida and Diego's impossibility comes, in my opinion, from their sexual mismatch (despite this does not necessarily advocate a personality mismatch) rather than from a political stance. The political stance here contributes even stronger to sustaining the couple and promoting it on the level of intellectual nearness. Indeed, they are both supporter of Communism and here we are already talking about the mature period of Communist in its fight against the Imperialists (certainly, these are the same imperialists that would have paid Rivera for painting Rockefeller Centre) and the meeting between the couple and Trotsky is defining for the late phase of their relationship."

Analyzing Male and Female Conversation Styles in "You Just Don't Understand", 2001.

Abstract
This paper analyzes the book "You Just Don't Understand by the linguist Deborah Tannen. The sees it as a work of popular psychology written with the intention of analyzing and explaining the different conversational and linguistic styles of men and women. The author cites Tannen's central thesis that some of the difficulties in communication between men and women in the workplace and at home are the result of the inherently different conversational styles of the sexes.
From the Paper
"Some of Tannen's theories tend to support common preconceived notions of gender norms. For instance, women are thought to emphasize collaboration and consensus when coming to a group decision. Men tend to use confrontation, even when they are in some form of basic agreement with the individual with whom they are speaking. This male, confrontational style, even when done in a friendly manner, can be alienating to women. Women, in contrast, often use conversation not as a means of communicating information but as a way of reaffirming interpersonal connections. This is why men often think that women are talking about nothing. The purpose of such traditionally female speech is not the topic of conversation that is at hand, rather it is to say, "Yes we're friends", or Yes we're together", or simply "I am here for you." This is why women are often taken aback when, in trying to talk about their day, the man in their life tries to solve the problem their words have brought up, rather than simply listening to them and acknowledging and affirming "Yes, you did have a problem at work today."

Abstract
The paper explains why male and female students have different interests in terms of academics as well as different levels of achievement and expectations.

Introduction
Are Girls Really Smarter Than Boys?
Attitudes and Expectations
Summary & Conclusion
From the Paper
"It is commonly believed that male and female students have quite different perceptions one from the other as to what the educational system will imbue in their lives and often their own individual expectations are quite different from the expectations placed upon them by their friends, family and teachers. It is generally agreed upon that male and female students have different academic interests and that they achieve on different levels. With all of this in mind then surely their expectations and experiences within the educational institution must be quite different one from the other as well."

Male and Female Slavery in America, 2004.
A comparative analysis of the narrative of the "Life of Frederick Douglass" by Frederick Douglass and "Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl" by Harriet Jacobs.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper examines how female and male autobiographical narratives invariably take different forms because of the different, albeit culturally constructed, nature of male and female experience. In particular, it looks at the contrast between Frederick Douglass?s narrative, its ?plot? or true-life story structure and interest in comparison to Harriet Jacobs' tale of her escape from bondage. It explores how both tales are significantly impacted by the gender of the authors as well as the author?s intent in writing and intended audience. Douglass tells the tale of a young man who escaped ignorance and violence through movement. Jacobs tells the tale of herself as a young woman and mother seeking escape from sexual exploitation, not through movement, but through hiding.
From the Paper
"Both authors wrote against the institution of slavery, and used their own, personal experiences of slavery in the South to generate support for the national abolition of the institution. At the time, the abolitionist movement was mainly grounded in the Northern states of America. However, Douglass wrote, and also spoke as a gifted orator, mainly to Northern Whites. Thus his autobiography uses elements of how slavery it detrimental to the ?souls of White folk? (to turn a phrase of W.E.B. Dubois on its head) as well as those of the enslaved, to generate support for the anti-slavery cause. An example of this can be found in his description of a White woman whom is one of the first mistresses of the young, enslaved Douglass."

Abstract
This paper takes a look at the experiences of black slaves in the United States. It examines two personal stories - one of a man and one of a woman and compares the experiences from a gender-based perspective. The stories told are those of Frederick Douglass in his work "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass" and Harriet Jacobs in her account of slavery entitled "Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl".
From the paper:
Slavery in America during the 18th and 19th centuries is universally thought of as a deplorable institution based on degradation, hate, and injustice. The horrors visited upon the slaves by their fellow man (masters) were unquestionably appalling. Keeping this in mind one might wonder, was the experience the same for male slaves as it was for females? Both sexes were subject to the same dreadful conditions and revulsions assigned to slavery but the experience was definitely different for men vs. women. "

Male-Female Dynamics in Greek Literature, 2005.
Discusses the comparisons between two relationships in ancient Greek literature: Hector and Andromache from the "Iliad" by Homer and Oedipus and Jocasta from the "Oedipal" trilogy by Sophocles.

Abstract
The parallel gained by a closer study of the characters, Hector and Oedipus, shows both comparisons and contrasts that can be drawn. Both couples in these works by ancient Greek authors Sophocles and Homer show not only bittersweet pictures of the loving tragic family, but also show the differing emotions and reactions that an average person goes through during a personal crisis. The paper notes that, just as one can clearly see the depth of their relationships, one can clearly see the progression of the emotions in play. The depth, dynamics, and reactions of each relationship bring them to life and show not only the insight the writers had into human nature, but also the quality that these works have that makes them a part of our modern literature.
From the Paper
"Another prominent similarity between the two couples is their outstanding family life. With Hector and Andromache, their scene with Astyanax is perhaps the most well-known and emotional scene of The Iliad. As Andromache and Hector meet on the Trojan precipice, they speak of their love and concern for each other and then play with their son. As the exchange between the three proceeds with laughter and love, we see the playtime with Astyanax as, "Then taking up his dear son he tossed him about in his arms, and kissed him, and lifted his voice in prayer to Zeus...:...grant this boy, who is my son, may be as I am...great in strength...and delight the heart if his mother," (91). We see not only the joy they share embodied in the boy, but Troy's hope for a future. The affectionate family dynamic, either atypical of ancient fathers or at least not written into much literature, is also seen with Oedipus and Jocasta's home life, though the audience may shudder."
