Identity construction about human sexuality is culture-driven. In the West, the dual categorization of sex in male/female and the belief that individuals inherit a gender identity at birth in harmony with the ideal physical and biological frame remains dominant. In some cultures, gender identity derives from actions, not from a person's body. In Hawaii, transgendered men are recognized, called mahuwahine, who engage in activities culturally designated for women, such as making clothing. Aki fishermen were a cultural norm delegated to participate in a female capacity, such as cooking and cleaning. The South African Zuni adolescent completing conversion from male to female between the age of 13 and 14 found fulfilment by marrying men. Western constricting gender category roles like male and female are now universally accepted. Nevertheless, worldwide, individuals so constrained by the sex assigned to them have sought, and in some cultures received, recognition and ritualistic san...

How did Desmond Doss inspire? But when it came time for war Desmond put the bad things behind and many of the lives he had saved were the men that treated him poorly earlier on. Desmond Doss is an inspiration because of his selflessness, his forgiveness, and that he never killed anyone while on duty.13 Feb 2018 How is Desmond Doss a hero? Doss successfully rescued 75 men trapped at the top of the escarpment by lowering them with a special knot he knew. He had miraculously not been wounded and stayed in the fight with B Company. On May 21, Doss was wounded several times by grenade fragments and a sniper's bullet through his arm.12 Oct 2020 What was the impact of Desmond Doss? Through his outstanding bravery and unflinching determination in the face of desperately dangerous conditions Pfc. Doss saved the lives of many soldiers. His name became a symbol throughout the 77th Infantry Division for outstanding gallantry far above and beyond the call of duty. What are the quali...

States Of Matter     -     Quark gluon plasma As we know when we heat an ice cube we get liquid water and when we further heat it we get gas. While heating we develop different states of matter. Did you ever wonder what will happen if we further heat the gas? Heating it in very high temperatures divides into molecules and thus divides into atoms. The atom will lose its stability and the electron rotate in non- circular orbits around the nucleus and lose the electrons. Heating it further will develop into plasma. When we further heat it further, the nucleus of the atom cannot hold the protons and neutrons further. Protons and neutrons are also know as nucleons as they are the part of the nucleus.  Nucleons are each made of three particles called quarks which are held very strongly. In normal conditions one cannot pull a quark out. But in conditions of high temperatures this can be done. If we heat the matter enough we can melt the nucleons and have the ...

Neutron stars are the densest objects in the entire universe. They're so dense, in fact, that if they were even a tiny bit denser, they would collapse to become black holes. Neutrons stars are what you get after a giant star (at least 10 times the mass of the Sun) dies. The typical density of neutron stars is around 10^17 kilograms per cubic meter. A thimbleful of neutron star material would weigh more than 100 million tons on the surface of Earth. It is this incredible density that is able to compress neutrons into cube-like shapes.  Neutron stars are one of the most fascinating and extreme objects in the universe, formed from the remnants of massive stars that have undergone a supernova explosion. When a star about 8–20 times the mass of our Sun reaches the end of its life, its core collapses under gravity after exhausting its nuclear fuel. The outer layers are blown away in a spectacular supernova, while the dense core is crushed into a neutron star. This collapse forces proton...

Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dalí i Domènech, Marquess of Dalí of Púbol  (11 May 1904 – 23 January 1989), known as  Salvador Dalí  was a Spanish surrealist artist renowned for his technical skill, precise draftsmanship, and the striking and bizarre images in his work. Born in Figueres, Catalonia, Spain, Dalí received his formal education in fine arts in Madrid. Influenced by Impressionism and the Renaissance masters from a young age he became increasingly attracted to Cubism and avant-garde movements. He moved closer to Surrealism in the late 1920s and joined the Surrealist group in 1929, soon becoming one of its leading exponents. His best-known work,  The Persistence of Memory , was completed in August 1931, and is one of the most famous Surrealist paintings. Dalí lived in France throughout the Spanish Civil War (1936 to 1939) before leaving for the United States in 1940 where he achieved co...
