The fact that Virginia Woolf was born in England in 1882--a time when women were not as free to pursue a career, to be independent, or even to have their own privacy at times--was one of the reasons why she wrote A Room of One's Own. It discusses feminist ideas and criticizes the traditional hierarchies and the male-dominant society in which she lived in. Her essay was a result of feeling oppressed by that society.

When most people are ill with a non-life-threatening condition, he will most often see a General Practitioner. These doctors generally work in the local community in surgeries rather than hospitals, so they are convenient for people to see for a consultation. However, other GPs can work in a very wide range of areas, such as in hospitals, in education, and for insurance
companies. As the name suggests, GPs are doctors that do not have a specialty, such as a brain surgeon or cancer specialist: they are able to diagnose and treat all the possible diseases and problems that one of their patients might have. They can treat and manage most illnesses and perform some minor surgeries in their practice. Then for more serious cases, they will refer the patient to a specialist that works in a hospital. If you are ill and need to see a GP, you will normally need to make an appointment. Sometimes you can just walk into the clinic and see a doctor, but that is not very likely as GPs are normally very busy and all their appointment times are fully booked. Often you have to wait several hours if not at least one of two days before you can get an appointment with a GP. If you are too ill to wait, you have to go to a hospital and visit the accident and emergency department. GPs also make house calls. This is when the GP comes to your house to treat you or see a patient. Most often a GP has to make house calls to see elderly people who cannot get to the surgery easily. They might be ill and need to doctor to give them medicine or it could be that the GP just wants to check on them and make sure that they are ok. if you are ill, the doctor will normally prescribe you some medicine and tell you to go away for a few days before you go back and visit them again if you have not started to get better. The GP will also explain how you can have a better lifestyle that could prevent you from becoming ill in the resting place. They will normally recommend that you stop smoking cigarettes, not drink alcohol, and get exercise. Once you have your prescription you will need to visit a pharmacy to get the medicine the doctor prescribed for you.
Happy learning!

You have to show us or tell us the story that goes with this.
Answer and Explanation:
How do you feel about that statistic?
That statistic makes me feel deceived, misled. Such a high number means half of the information conveyed to us is not completely trustworthy. It is what PR companies want us to think, not real information which we can use to think for ourselves. It is quite a sad reality, and it shows we still have a long way to go before we can think of ourselves as truly free. Knowledge is the rock upon which we can build our freedom. Without it, we are easily controlled and kept chained by those in power.
Do you think most people realize this?
I do not think people realize this. If more people knew about this, there would likely be a public outcry for change and better ways to filter what truly is news and what is not. That is obviously a difficult endeavor. But, just as so many others throughout history, it is worth fighting for.
