Beschreibung

In the UK, around one in six men will experience some form of sexual violence. Many of these men who experience sexual abuse are dismissed, only brought up as the butt of a joke, an exception to the rule or, perhaps at worst, are used as a rhetorical tool against female victims.
Conversations on sexual violence have understandably focused on women's voices and experiences, with data indicating that women are still the majority of victims and not enough is being done to prevent this violence. As most perpetrators of this violence against women are men, it becomes almost easy to mistake that male survivors stories are exceptions or irrelevances. The fact is that we share a world and our experiences are closely interwoven.
Sons and Others challenges misconceptions and misrepresentations of sexual violence against men across media and society and offers a new way of seeing and understanding these men in our lives, asking how the violence they experience affects us all.

    Body Art - The Ultimate Form Of...

    I hope that you will find the information helpful, useful and profitable. 
    It could easily be argued that body art is more popular than at any time in history. In days long gone by, sailors were the most heavily tattooed sector of society, but for decades now, that sector is the youth, which is a larger group than those who put to sea. 
    Not only has actual tattooing found a wider demographic, but technology has expanded the methods that can be employed to enhance our bodies. Nowadays, for example, you can get a fake tattoo that will last a couple of days for a special event. In a similar vein, women can be body-painted and the casual observer would be forgiven for not seeing a naked lady. 
    This doesn’t work so well for men, for obvious reasons! 
    You can also get fake tans, hair dyes, and nail varnishes that can easily be applied at home. There are also teeth whitening, cheap wigs, and coloured contact lenses available. Not to mention cheap sunglasses and fake glasses of numerous kinds. 
    The ultimate form of body art is plastic surgery. Many ordinary people aspire to plastic cut, tucks and nips these days – it is not only the privilege of the rich and famous. In fact, some countries, like Thailand, offer holidays that include plastic surgery (and other forms), so that your friends will hardly recognise when you return from a month’s holiday! 
    In fact, with all the options for body art available on a typical Western high street, no-one need look the same two days running! 
    The information in this ebook on various aspects of body art and related subjects, such as piercing, body painting and tattoos, is organized into 18 chapters of about 500-600 words each. 
    I hope that it will interest those who like to write a diary and blog, or would like to, plus webmasters who need content for their online publications.

    The American Dream - A History...

    The roots of the American Dream reach back to the earliest colonial settlements, when European settlers arrived with hopes of building a better life far from the constraints of their homelands. For many, the New World offered something previously unimaginable—land ownership, religious freedom, and the possibility of rising above the station into which they were born. These opportunities, though limited to a select group at the time, laid the foundation for the evolving idea that anyone could succeed through hard work and determination. In this fertile but dangerous land, ambition was a necessity, and the early colonists began to shape a cultural identity around individualism and perseverance. 
    As the colonies grew and developed, tensions with Britain intensified, giving rise to revolutionary ideas that would further fuel the American Dream. The rejection of monarchy and the assertion of natural rights became central to the vision of a new nation. The Revolution itself was not just a fight for independence but also a declaration that ordinary people had the right to govern themselves. The rhetoric of the time emphasized liberty, equality, and the pursuit of happiness—concepts that would become permanently embedded in the national consciousness. The struggle to gain freedom was brutal and uneven, but the ideals expressed during this time continued to inspire generations to believe in the possibility of social mobility and personal fulfillment. 
    One of the most significant documents in American history, the Declaration of Independence, formalized the promise of the American Dream. Its bold claim that "all men are created equal" introduced a national aspiration that transcended the immediate political conflict. Although in practice this equality was far from realized, the statement set a powerful ideal against which future Americans would measure their progress.

    If you want to discover the captivating history of the 1879 Anglo-Zulu War, then keep reading… 
    How well do you think you would fare if you were armed with short spears and cowhide shields against an army with rifles, machine guns, and artillery? 
    In January 1879, a powerful and modern British army advanced confidently into Zululand, determined to kill or capture Zulu King Cetwayo and crush the Zulu warrior army. Days later, the British soldiers were in headlong retreat, having suffered one of the most devastating defeats in British military history. That same day, only a gallant defense of a small outpost at Rorke’s Drift, matching one hundred British soldiers against four thousand Zulus, redeemed British imperial esteem. 
    You may know these two battles, but the campaign as a whole only lasted eight months and was full of desperate defenses, heroic attacks, tragedies, and surprise reversals of fortune. 
    In this audiobook, you will gain a good understanding of the causes, course, and consequences of the war, including the following:The background and approach to the warWhy though the British government in London did not want a war with the ZulusThe background of the Zulu Empire, including its history, rulers, culture, military structure, weapons, and tacticsThe British army of the time, including its structure, weapons, and tacticsThe strengths and weaknesses of both sidesThe mistakes and miscalculations made by the British commanders as they confronted the ZulusThe challenges facing the Zulus against a modern European armyThe course of events during the eight-month campaignThe detail of the two famous battles of Isandlwana and Rorke’s DriftThe defeat of the British first invasion and the need for a second one

    This sweeping history reorients our understanding of the Middle East, placing the Gulf at the heart of globalized trade and cross-cultural encounters. 
     
     
      
    World history began in the Persian Gulf. The ancient port cities that dotted its coastlines created the first global seaboard, a place from where faiths and cultures from around the world set sail and made contact. More than a history, The Center of the World shows us that contradictions that define our modern age have always been present. 
     
     
      
    For over four thousand years, the Gulf—sometimes called the Persian Gulf, sometimes the Arabian Gulf—has been a global crossroads while managing to avoid control by the world's greatest empires. In its history, we see a world of rapid change, fluctuating centers of trade, a dependency on uncertain global markets, and intense cross-cultural encounters that hold a mirror to the contemporary world. Focusing each chapter on a different port around the Gulf, The Center of the World shows how the people of the Gulf adapted to larger changes in world history, creating a system of free trade, merchant rule, and commerce that continues to define the region today.
