I’m taking a women’s studies course at UBC. Well actually, it’s not women’s studies anymore. It’s now gender, race, sexuality, and social justice. Rather a long name for a department. But I guess they figured maybe more guys would take it if it wasn’t called women’s studies?
I need to write a research paper. And I haven’t written a research paper in over a year. I am so not looking forward to it at all. The research, the citations, the struggle to come up with good content. My head hurts just thinking about it.
I think the topics we can write on are pretty broad, as long as they are relevant to the course. So pretty much, I need a topic that relates to some issue surrounding gender. And of course my mind is drawing a blank.
I haven’t written any blog posts about gender at all in the past that I can somehow expand into an academic research paper, have I? No? Didn’t think so.
Apparently I have a midterm next week. Have I done the readings? Of course not. Will I fail? Probably. I’m terribly at exams. But part of it is writing a proposal for my paper. Maybe that part will bring me up to a pass? If I can come up with a good topic.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Girlfriend….. Get a topic!
Ugh but I’m so indecisive. I hate this.
See my research paper on Winx club a cartoon. It’s in the TheStory section
may help with the brainstorming or know what you don’t want to do!
The course is over now, but thanks though!
Societies contradiction when valuing Woman’s roles.
working mothers stay at home mothers how women generally are undermined and worse undermine themselves and each other. Will a mother being honored for her life choices be the new feminism?
Interesting topic. Maybe.
you must have written it by now?
I wrote the proposal for it but have yet to actually write the paper. Or start the paper.
