What is Women?

Women as a subject of academic inquiry spans disciplines including history, sociology, political science, literature, and public health. Courses in gender studies, social issues, American history, and cultural analysis regularly assign work on this topic because it sits at the intersection of power, identity, policy, and lived experience. The breadth of the subject allows students to examine how social structures have shaped women's opportunities, rights, and roles across vastly different cultures and time periods, making it one of the most consistently rich areas for analytical writing. Virginia Woolf's essay "Professions for Women" and Edward Said's framing of gender in colonial literature such as Kim illustrate how canonical texts continue to anchor discussions about representation and social constraint.

Student papers on this topic take a wide range of approaches. Historical analysis dominates many essays, tracing women's roles from Ancient Greece and Rome through Colonial New England and into modern American history since 1865. Comparative and regional studies examine women's education in the Middle East and women's rights in Saudi Arabia, while policy-focused work addresses military service, incarceration, and reproductive health. Case analysis and business strategy also appear, as in examinations of Nike's global women's fitness initiatives, showing that gender intersects with institutional and corporate contexts as well as social ones.

A strong essay on women should establish a focused thesis that specifies a time period, region, or institutional context rather than attempting to cover the subject broadly. Evidence drawn from primary historical sources, legislative records, or documented case studies carries particular weight. The most common pitfall is treating "women" as a monolithic category — effective essays account for how race, class, culture, and geography shape women's experiences in meaningfully different ways.

Tobacco Advertising Icons: Marlboro Man and Joe Camel

This sort of mass media advertising directly led to countless teen smokers picking up the habit in their adolescence. Major tobacco companies deny that these ads were targeted towards children or teens, a denial which created a tense debate between Big Tobacco and American parents, and although “the tobacco industry denies that their marketing is targeted at young nonsmokers … it seems more probable that tobacco advertising and promotion influences the attitudes of nonsmoking adolescents, and makes them more likely to try smoking” (Lovato, Linn, Stead & Best 344). The debate was settled when the United States Congress intervened over ten years ago and facing enormous pressure and scrutiny, all major tobacco companies have abandoned their once beloved logos. The demise of the Marlboro Man and Joe Camel is a welcome shift from the sinister advertising tactics used by tobacco companies in the past, but as we have learned from past regulation efforts, “over the past half-century, cigarette manufacturers have found ways to successfully sell their product despite increasing advertising restrictions and will no doubt try to continue to do so in the face of this new legislation” (James and Olstad 1). The impact from these icons on our popular culture will never be forgotten, however, as millions of people each year die from cigarette related illnesses. These pop culture icons, no matter how horrifying they are in a way, will always be remembered as among the most remarkable and memorable advertising strategies of all time.
