Why Keeping Girls Squeaky Clean Could Make Them Sick

It seems counterintuitive that that being clean could make them more likely to be sick. Girls for the longest time have been taught and expected to stay clean. They wear clothes that they are supposed to keep clean, they are held to a higher standard of cleanliness, they are told to stay out of the dirt, they are told that only boys are allowed to play in the dirt, and so much more. But all of this can cause their immune systems to be weaker because they are not exposed to enough germs. Without the chances for their bodies to be able to build up immunity, they run the risk of higher chance of getting sick and havening worse symptoms than others with the same illness.

Men Defining Rape

It seems counterintuitive that rape had such unfair and odd laws. During 1780 BC, The Code of Hammurabi defined rape of a virgin as “property damage against her father.” During this time, if you were raped while married, you were considered and adulteress and would be thrown in the river as punishment. Up until the l990s the U.S. had very questionable rules for rape punishments. Women of color were excluded from consideration as well. You were basically out of luck if you weren’t a virgin and/or white. Most states “had laws that held statutory rape wasn’t rape if the woman was ‘impure’.” Also, if a women wanted to try and accuse someone of rape she needed evidence, but men had trouble deciding how much evidence was needed. Rape was barely considered until recent times to be a major problem and has only recently become a crime

Is Extreme Parenting Effective

It seems counterintuitive that “extreme parenting” is a thing. These parents are very strict towards there children and prevent them from being ‘spoiled brats’ by not giving them access to whatever they want. They strip away their use of lots of privileges that most kids have that these extreme parents believe causes the rest of these kids to act in negative ways. These parents are also very strict with their children in many ways like only letting them get grades above an A and not even letting them talk to other kids outside of school or sports! They will also force them to spend all of their time learning instead of playing and having fun. A lot of people actually believe that Chinese mothers are superior when it comes to ‘Extreme Parenting’ as most of us know how strict they can be. But it seems to be pretty effective as we see many Chinese children are very smart.
