In Katherine Dunn's Geek Love, the main characters are separated into two categories, the norms and the freaks. The narrative creates a world where all the freakish things are defined as normal and tells how all the characters can switch from one category to another. All these plots come out with Al’s one thought, “how the oddity of them was beautiful and how that oddity was contrived to give them value. [...] He realized that children could be designed" (9). Al intentionally manages to make his children freaks. Along with the story of the Binwskis’ family, the boundaries between “norms” and “freaks” are challenged and redefined.…

Ryan is a heterosexuality guy and he believes in homosexuality is just a choice. He used to be an army and he feels like male should have masculinity. For example, he loves to play football and he has some guns which he called it to ‘babies’. He is a devout Christian. His apartment has a picture of Jesus on the wall.

Merry to same gender is wrong which is come from bible. In the second day, he asked Ed that how can he realized that he is gay and he said that he can’t think about people was born with gay. In the 7th day, Ryan told Penny Nixon who leads the Metropolitan Community Church of San Francisco that he thinks that homosexuality is a fault. It’s something that homosexuality need to recognize. He also mentioned "Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind. It is abomination." that one of the most controversial pieces of the Bible. Even Ryan didn’t say that homophobia or sexism but I feel he has in the deep of his mind. He believes the relationship of couple should be between female and male and homosexuality is totally wrong.…
Due to my life experiences I was able to view Tanneke as the bitter person Griet described. Throughout the novel there's a constant sense of jealousy between Griet and Tanneke. We see that when Griet first arrives at the Vermeer’s house she wants to get along with Tanneke, the other maid in the house. However, Tanneke's rude and adverse attitude along with her need for superiority over Griet, continuously puts her in an uncomfortable and vulnerable situation preventing them from becoming friends. The hatred was sparked when Griet was receiving attention from Van Ruijven and the master which made her jealous that people liked Griet more than her. This further caused Tanneke to retaliate in childish acts of revenge. In regards to this Tanneke's…

Since the arrival of African Americans in this country blacks have always had differing experiences. Consequently, African-Americans have had to forge a self-identity out of what has been passed on to them as fact about their true selves. History has wrought oppression and subjugation to this particular race of people and as a result, certain institutions were formed in order aid African-Americans, culturally, spiritually and economically. The African-American Church has served of one such institution. From the time of slavery, though outlawed, many slaves found ways to congregate and form their own "churches", away from the one-sided and bias lessons about the bible that they were being taught in the white church. The white ministers and clergymen of this time argued that it was the will of God that Blacks should be obedient and submissive to their masters, and that that was the will of God. In his article "Black Consciousness and the Black Church: A Historical and Theological Interpretation," James Cone examines whether the African-American Church and calls into question whether or not it has truly evolved and separated itself from the traditionally pacifistic ways of the Anglo-Saxon and Post-Civil War black church. He is arguing whether or not the Black church meets the basic need of African-American to resist oppressive forces of society and to find teachings that are void of the white perspective of religion. In her article "The Image of God: Black Theology and Racial Empowerment in the African American Community," author Allison Calhoun Brown conducts a scientific study as to the significance of the image of God in shaping views about religion in the African American community. Calhoun attempts to draw a link between how big an impact the image of God in the African-American community affects political participation in the Black community. The articles provide the basis for examining the effect of religion in the lives of African-Americans, and also an…
At the beginning of the film, Kat and Patrick have an unhealthy relationship. They are lying to each other and not communicating properly. Patrick is keeps secrets about why he is making advances on Kat, and they both don’t talk to each other about their problems whenever one in their relationship comes up. Kat has a low self-esteem, which is shown when she goes to the party and decides to get wasted on alcohol and perform because “that’s what everybody does at a party.” The largest problem in their relationship hits during the climax of the movie, in which Kat finds out that Patrick was actually being paid by Joey to woo her. Rather than ignoring this gigantic rock in their relationship, they use healthy techniques to deal with the problem. They talk to each other about how they feel, without any lies or with-holding of truth. By the end of the movie, their relationship has transformed from an unhealthy relationship filled with lies and blindness to a healthy one with open emotions and good communication. This relationship strengthened Kat’s self-esteem as well, because later in the film, she admits that she chose to disappoint people early on so that she wouldn’t have to live up to other people’s expectations, but realizes that that…
I think the main conflict in this story that drives this plot to its outcome is Connie's conflict with her own perception of herself. I think that if she was not so assured that there was nothing else to her but her skin-deep looks, due to her mother's ridicule and her "better" sister, that she would not feel as if Arnold Friend truly appreciated her beauty and innocence. The conflict in the story is man vs. self. Connie is trying to figure out what is the best decision for herself. The constant manipulation from Arnold plays on her ability to make rational decisions, therefore she struggles to come up with an appropriate verdict to stay out of harm’s way. True, her confidence blinded her from Arnold's manipulative, well -researched and rehearsed…
