In the segment “The Doctor Is In” the Today show discussed an article called “The Good Wife’s Guide” it told women what men wanted. According to the article, women are supposed to:
- “Let him talk first.”
- “Remember his topics of conversation are more important than yours.”
- “Catering for his comfort will provide you immense personal satisfaction.”
- “Don’t complain if he’s late home for dinner or even if he stays out all night.”
They go on to say the article was a fake but has been causing some uproar among women. So do men really want a woman like “June Cleaver”? The today show reported yes and no. I think I would say yes and no in this situation too. While everyone loves to have someone to care for them, can you care to much?
I’m not married myself, but I have been dating my boyfriend for 4 years and I care a lot about him. But I think it is important in relationships to trade off who does what. That way everyone can share responsibilities. I think being a “June Cleaver” all the time would get boring. A woman has to do what she wants to do to.
A man was arrested on September 14th for a 15th DUI arrest. Video: Man charged with 15th DUI*. This is upsetting to me. Being a teenager, I was just involved in an auto accident. I was not hit by a drunk driver, but by an elder man. Police stated this man’s license was never taken away. That’s what surprises me the most. This man’s license should have been suspended the first time and taken away after the second time.
You always hear statistics about the younger generation causing auto accidents. I think that everyone is equally responsible. Everyone on the road plays a part. I wanted to share this with you, so everyone can be aware of what is going on. Be careful out there!
According to Cnn.com, a student began shooting at Dawson College today. The student wounded 19 classmates. What is this world coming to when students are being killed for no reason? What makes this case different is that no specific person was targeted.
Being a college student myself, this really scares me. I do not even know what to say. Where do I draw the line between my personal safety, the safety of others, and the education I need to graduate?
In the news today I saw that Michigan was trying to pass a law making it mandatory for women to get HPV cervical cancer shots. The series of three shots costs $360 dollars and prevents HPV from spreading into cervical cancer. According to the MSN Health website the “American Cancer Society estimates that cervical cancer will be diagnosed in 9,700 women nationwide, and that 3,700 will die.” I do not think that this is fair. While I am all for preventing cancer I do not agree with making the shots mandatory. What about families or women without health care? How are those women supposed to get the mandatory shot?
Indiana is also pushing for this to be passed. I feel if they want to pass this then they need to lower the price or offer assistance to those of us who would otherwise not be able to afford it. I find it also interesting they are trying to force this on us, because it is something that can be cured on its own. “About 80 percent of sexually active women will be infected by age 50, but for 90 percent of those infected; the virus is naturally cleared from the body and becomes undetectable.” This means only 10% of the women will benefit from the shot.
