The novel concentrates on the desire to conceive a person's personal wants while conforming to tradition.

- 10458: Honesty

But the real question is what would a majority of American’s youth do in a similar situation. There are two potentially dishonest acts in this situation, lying and stealing.

Using expressions such as “a k a”, and terms such as “creepy”, Parker expresses different women’s opinions of the television show, in a mannerism that is just like the show itself. In a different light, articles referring to women in television could be written very differently. Written in the Journal of Popular Film and Television, Rhonda V. Wilcox’s article, Dominate Female, Superior Male, expresses a more serious look at women and their roles in television. The biggest difference between the two articles is that one is written in a scholarly tone (Wilcox) and the other is written in a popular writing tone (Parker). To add to her own “fun” writing style, Parker uses many small paragraph’s to keep the readers interested. With no indentations and many one sentenced paragraphs the article seems to move quite fast and never getting boring although it is a long article. Using terms that are ...
