Extra Credit-Serial Killers

For my final paper I am talking about serial killers in film and something I've noticed is that almost all of them are always male. Why is it that men are the sick sadistic ones. Maybe women have more common sense than to do something so risky or their mental states just won't allow them. I'm not sure about a lot of these questions but I still think it's very interesting. Say for instance you walk down an alley late at night and another man is there you'd be freaked out probably, but if it was a woman you'd think nothing of it probably except that she may be a hooker or something. So why is it that there aren't many female serial killers? Just a thought any comments are welcome.

March 16-20-Make-Up-Princess Diaries 2

In the movie Princess Mia finds out to take the throne she must be married first. She sets out to pick out the perfect husband even if it isn't the man of her dreams. She soon realizes that she is falling for the guy who would become king if she were to not find as husband. However, she is already engaged to a Duke from England. The love triangle goes back and forth with Mia unsure of what to do. She really likes the Prince, but doesn't completely trust that he will be a good husband to let her rule herself. Finally when the wedding day comes she can not bring herself to go through with it and she lets her to be husband go so they can both have a chance at true love. She then purposes that she should not have to marry just to take the throne. They council accepts her offer and she is crowned queen without a husband. This movie is a great example of female empowerment. A women should not have to be married to rule if a man doesn't have to have a wife to rule.

Wedgie Commercial

So everyone gets them right? Guys where underwear that is so baggy they are probably less likely to get them than girls. Its kind of an embarrassing thing to do when your in public, but if you've ever had underwear stuck up your butt you know how irritating it can be. Like in the commercial we see a girl walk into a shoe store and we hear her internal thoughts about figuring out a way to get rid of her wedgie without being noticeable. She wiggles to the left right and all over the place just to get it out. She ends up making a fool of herself just trying to get it out instead of just quickly grabbing it. Guys pick, grab, itch and everything else in public so why is it necessary to make girl underwear that are wedgie proof. Shouldn't a girl just picking a wedgie be they same as a guy doing any of those other things?
