Proposal Formal Paper #2


Proposal Formal Paper #2
Title: Undecided
Author: Me J
Date: 11/18/12
Topic: Women’s power in the modern world. Equal with of man?
Analysis of Argument
Exigence: To demonstrate all the forms and sources of power and influence that women hold in the modern world, in comparison to those possessed my men, and in doing so to prevent from the somewhat one-track mind set the feminist movement can sometimes tend to have.
Intended Audience: All females! And specifically to Jean Kilbourne in response to her exert in the Rereading America textbook. I think it’s imperative for all women to understand the advantage that they truly do have in our modern society; women who waste time talking about how they could have more power instead of taking advantage of the powers they already possess and being the example of the kind of woman they say they stand for, and women who just simply aren't aware of the power’s they've always possessed and just need to be made aware, not told that they are just a product of a society in which they are helpless, weak, and victimized, like Kilbourne made them out to be.
Purpose: To allow Kilbourne to know that making statements that confirm that media is having an impact on society which is suppressing and negative towards women is hardly enough in the process of fixing that problem, and is just as good as pointing a finger in blame, and then walking away with no means of making a solution or finding a compromise with what/who it is you're pointing the finger to.
Logos: For the logical reasoning in the essay/business letter I will compare both Kilbourne and Morgan's pieces, and elaborate on each their arguments so as to to draw out the pros and cons of each and eventually explain how Morgan's reasoning is more realistic and effective than Kilbourne's at generating empowerment for women, and finding a real means to equality of the sexes.
Ethos: For the ethical    reasoning of this business letter I will use the examples of women who've achieved great success to back what I have to say, and I will also describe my position as a woman and, at that, a woman who also envisions a path for success.
Pathos: For the emotional appeal of this piece I will describe a need for understanding on both sides of the spectrum, for both men and women, and how this understanding will lead to better harmony and happiness for both men and women.
