thinking about class‚ race‚ and gender? The primary way Tough Guise gets us to think about class‚ race‚ and gender is by showing how the media presents them.

Final Exam: Religion and Gender PART I: A) St. Augustine was a very interesting man. I think‚ because he was such a sexual maniac in his earlier days before his conversion that he just totally stays away (and tells others to do the same) from everything sexual.
