Women as Agents of Morality
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page discussion of whether or not women act as agents of morality. Contends that women are not only moral they are often agents of morality, instigating moral standards and codes on a largely patriarchal society which without them might not have such positive norms. Emphasizes, however, that history has more frequently denounced women as agents of morality rather than acknowledge them as such. The reasons for this denouncement lies in the fact that women often take a stance on morality which differs considerably from that of men.

Women In Consumer Culture 1945-1970
[ send me this essay ]
15 pages in length. After World War II, business attempted to create a predictable market out of growing families. Capitalizing on the Post-War ideology of breadwinning fathers, the new ways in which children were being viewed and raised, and the notions of women as stay at home mothers, the new market focused on women as the primary consumers and promoted the 'Cult of Domesticity' in order to sell their products. However, this promotion required a certain number of women to enter the professional sphere in order to sell and teach women the task of making home and the science of consumption. Here, women garnered new skills that otherwise would have been foregone in the self-sufficient rural family. Suburbanization slowed the pace of progress that would have taken place in urban centers. Nevertheless, professionalizing home economics and consumer science helped the very women it was teaching to stay home to enter the public sphere and traditionally male domains. Not only did the stereotypes propogated by professionalizing consumer culture serve as a basis for backlash against stereotypical female roles, but it also taught women viable skills to enter the workforce - through the backdoor - ergo, creating a new feminist consumer market along the way. Bibliography lists 17 sources.
