LE%3BART%3B0000368526. Accessed 4 Dec. 2016. This source is a biased article

from the newspaper Chicago Tribune. It presents the definition of feminism, different

perspectives/points of view of feminists, feminism in social media, feminism in school,

and celebrities who support feminism. According to this article, feminism is the radical

notion that women are people. It also clarifies how feminism is the seeking of gender

equality - unlike the popular perspective where feminism is seen as hating men. This

article helps me because now, I have a greater understanding of feminism and I know

how it plays into pop culture, social media, and schools.

Blasberg, Charlie. "Rethinking Title IX." University Wire, 2014. SIRS Knowledge Source,

sks.sirs.com/webapp/article?artno=369732&type=ART. Accessed 15 Jan. 2017. This

source is a biased SKS Document. It provides evidence for the argument that Title IX

discriminates against men. For example, in 1980, there used to be 116 men collegiate

gymnastics teams, now there are only 17. This is because colleges cut men from teams to

fund more women teams so that they follow Title IX. This article helps me because now I

know more about gender inequality in sports.

LE%3BART%3B0000024371. Accessed 11 Dec. 2016. This source is a biased web page

article from the website Fast Forward (disclaimer: it was retrieved from the SIRS
 Discover database). It discusses sexism in the classroom and proves it with data. For

example, it presents that in 1960, 5.5% of M.Ds conferred went to women and in 1989 it

was 33%. Since it is 2016, things has changed since 1989, meaning more women than

33% are conferred M.Ds. This article will help me because it gives me a greater

understanding of the roots of the gender inequality in education.

This source is a non biased article from the magazine The Hispanic Outlook in Higher

Education. It is an authoritative source because it presents data from research by

authoritative organizations. It also presents different arguments on the gender wage gap.

For example, the CAP argues for equal wage while surprisingly, the IWF somewhat

contrasts. This article will help me because it gives me both perspectives on gender

equality - unlike most of the other sources I read.

LE%3BART%3B0000027533. Accessed 7 Jan. 2017. This source is a biased article from

the magazine Current Health 1. It explained different gender stereotypes. For example,

girls are supposed to cook and sew and boys are supposed to be good at math, science,

and sports. It also explains how these gender stereotypes emerged. For example, girl

minds and boy minds think differently because of different hormones (girls = Estrogen,

boys = Testosterone). This article believes that individual differences matter, not gender

differences.

Accessed 14 Jan. 2017. This source is an article from ABC News and is about the reverse

gender wage gap in the modeling industry. Female models make far more than male

models. For example, female model Gisele Bundchen makes $42 million dollars yearly

while male model Sean O'Pry only make $1.5 million. This is called reverse gender wage

gap because usually women are paid less than men, but in the modeling industry, men are

paid less. This article helps me because now I know about the gender inequality in the

modeling industry.

"Gender Equality Universally Embraced, But Inequalities Acknowledged." PewGlobal, 1 July

2010, www.pewglobal.org. Accessed 17 Nov. 2016. This source is a factual article and it

presents data from research done by the Pew Research Center. This article must be

authoritative because the website is a ".org". The data is very helpful too. For example,

by reading this article, I found out that 97% of Americans believe that women should

have equal rights as men while in contrast, 45% of Nigeria believe in equal rights. I will

be able to use this data as proof of gender inequality and sexism in various countries.

Since they present the countries that have the most gender inequality (i.e. Indonesia,

Nigeria), I will be able to research these countries and find out why they have gender
 inequality. This will help me understand the roots of gender inequality/sexism and why it

exists.

LE%3BART%3B0000355882. Accessed 3 Dec. 2016. This source is a biased article

from the magazine Faces. It presents the story of an Egyptian woman named Huda

Shaarawl - an activist who fought for women's rights. As a result of her revolution,

women were given the right to vote in Egypt in 1956 and in 1957, the first Egyptian

woman was elected to the parliament. The article then compares the progress made in

Egypt to the rest of the Arab world. For example, the Arab world has one of the lowest

female employment rates in the world. Women are also not allowed to drive in Saudi

Arabia. Though, many activists are protesting by driving despite the risk of arrest. This

source helps me because now, I have a better understanding of what is going on in Saudi

Arabia and surrounding countries where Islam is the main religion.

article from the magazine Scholastic Scope. It discusses the progress that women have

made toward equality with men and the things that are still yet to be fixed. For example,

some progress that have been is that in 2002, the amount of women in congress was at

the "all-time high" -- 73. Some progress that is yet to be made is that even though women
 in congress is at the highest point right now, the amount of women in congress is only

13.6%. This article helps me because I now know the successes that women have made

and the progress that still needs to be made.

princesses (Moana, Merida). This article helps because I now know more about the roots

of gender stereotyping.

discrimination against/in women too. Woman are judged by their looks. Woman are also

under the "Glass Ceiling". The glass ceiling is the invisible barrier that prevents women
