It could be C or D but I believe it is C since the poem seems to bring across the idea that most people see women as skinny or thin and to have large legs or a large nose, she, by some is considered "off." That's just what I think.

Answer:

C. Anger about gender stereotyping.

Explanation:

Marge Piercy's "Barbie Doll" focuses on the predicament of a 'girl-child' and exemplifies a feminist tone. She critics the cultural stereotype of a perfect woman. She displays her anguish by suggesting the body image and patterns of behavior enforced by society as fatal. These deadly consequences include the girls killing themselves when they fail to meet the extensive unreasonable standards set up by society. <em>She argues that these norms mistreat the psyche of the woman and they prefer dying over attaining the perfect body. Thus, the poem is a commentary against gender stereotyping.</em>

Well, not only is our data bought and sold, It is also used without consent. The key to stealing data is technology, most data is input through some sort of technology. Whether it be someone entering their DOB on a website, or using their credit card for an online purchase. There are some sites that have even confirmed selling their member's data. As to why they do it? I'm not sure, some people believe it's to pander or better aim future products at individuals.

An Analysis on ""Are Too Many People Going to College"" Charles Murray’s essay proposes that American colleges are being flooded
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

I think he´s (partly) right

Explanation:

Partly right because yes, colleges are flooded with individuals who seem to be out of place and not learning anything that they could have learned outside the school building. Murray´s essay follows quite clearly the opinion of Noam Chomsky.  The strategical creation of a separated American class system is a daring theory that needs some (personal) coments because of its elitist element, i.e. we who study have (keep) the power.  

Two examples:

México is a democracy in name where the powerful and rich people send their kids - no matter how stupid they are - to college schools and private universities that only exist as the entry door to a well-paid job. And even if you don´t go to university you can always buy your degree, as former president Fox did.

Germany is a real democracy that has a social education system. It is costly but the economic support (bafug in German) for students is based on how much your parents earn. If your parents are poor you get more money per month to study and vice versa.

Now kindly look at the American educational system and see if it resembles more the Mexican or the German system.
