Same-Sex Marriage, Abortion, Abused Women, Child Abuse, Child Sexual Abuse

3) Potential research topics

Choose five topics that you think are potential research topics for your paper and briefly (in 2 to 5 sentences) explain why these topics are of interest to you.

3) Same-Sex Marriage interests me because I believe it love shouldn't be illegal. If a man and a woman can get married, and that could be seen as perfectly fine I think the same genders should be free to do the same. There are so many aspects that go into same sex marriage that I would like to learn about in depth.

Abortion is an interesting topic to me because I have a strong opinion about how a woman should make that decision on her own, considering it's her body. I feel like this would be a good essay topic and I would have so much to say about it.

Abused Women would be of an interest to me because there are so many women in the world who get abused today. I would love to look deeper into this topic and learn more about the abuser's mind.

Child abuse is of the interesting topics to me because unfortunately, children of many ages have to deal with the abuse they encounter. All though, this is a sad topic to research about I think it would be beneficial tot my knowledge.

Child Sexual Abuse is interesting to me because I know people who have gone through sexual abuse. I would like to research more about how the sexual abuse starts and why. Why do they feel the need to do that to young children or people of any age?

What Ticks You Off

2) What "ticks you off"?

Make a list of four or five things that "tick you off." Explain why. (Choose significant things that others might experience as well. For instance, your little brother might tick you off, but there is little chance that this annoyance will yield a possible paper topic). It is possible that one of these annoyances can be transformed into an interesting, engaging, and researchable project.

What ticks me off is feminism being look down upon. Many people shockingly think that feminism is a "waste of time" because they think women just want feminism so we can make it seem that we're the better gender. However that is not true. There are so many reasons why feminism should be taken seriously and not lightly. A lot of women are unfortunately raped because of what we wear. A lot of women get paid very little as oppose a man just because, well he's a man. Some people have a mindset that men are superior and we should be scared of them, and work in the kitchen cooking and cleaning. However, feminist think both genders should be equal and not think one should get less respect because of their gender. People still use the excuse "Boys will be boys" but why does that matter? Raping women should be taken lightly because "boys will be boys"? Women should get paid little because we're apparently living on this earth to stay home and cook all day, just because of our gender? Wrong. Feminism does NOT mean we're the best gender, it means we want equality and I can't seem to realize why some of those people think otherwise.
