Harrasment of Women on the Internet

This article was very interesting and disturbing to read at the same time.   It was not pleasant to read the baffling statistics and personal experiences of Amanda Hess being harassed online, especially being a woman myself.   One statistic that really stuck out to me was “of 3,787 people who reported being harassed from the year 2000 to 2012, 72.5 percent were female.”   That is a significantly large number and it should not be that high in my opinion.   You have to ask yourself, why is the number so much higher for women compared to men?

Consider the Lobster

Can Social Media Resolve Social Diviisons?

  Inequality: Can Social Media Resolve Divisions?                This essay was very interesting to read.   I was not aware that segregation still happened a lot today.   The story about Keke was sad to read because she lost her father due to gang violence.   I do not think this essay is inquiry because it is separated into sections and each section provides a lot of information but I did not read any questions.   This essay is both informative and opinioned in my opinion.                I think this essay fits Huxley’s three directions on how to write a successful essay.   This essay was personal, objective, and universal in many ways.   I’ll start by analyzing Keke’s story.   It was personal in the fact that she lost her father and held a lot on anger due to what happened.   It is also persona...
