Book excerpt: Today, in the popular and academic literature, women in the West who exhibit dominance-seeking behaviors to attain or maintain higher positions in social and professional networks are often referred to as "alpha females" or "alpha women". Within this context, the term "alpha female" has become synonymous with the term leadership. Much of the research on the human alpha female takes its cues predominantly from the nonhuman primate literature on the social and biological factors that may predispose an individual to be an "alpha", in particular, an "alpha male". What are considered traditionally masculine traits in the West, such as aggression, leadership, and dominance, are often used to describe the alpha female. More recently, traits such as collaboration, teamwork, coalition building, and affiliative behavior, considered typical "feminine" traits in the West, have also been used to describe the alpha female. To date however, whether women socially occupy and/or biologically express this identity has not been researched.. The purpose of this thesis is to address the gaps in the literature and following what has been studied in the nonhuman primate literature, to investigate whether women who identify as alpha female are distinguishable from other women. For the present study, I examined the associations between alpha female status with the expression of specific alpha female related traits, hormone concentrations in hair, as well as differences in finger lengths, or the 2D:4D ratio, a prenatal biomarker of testosterone exposure. For the women in this study, the results suggest, that though specific masculine traits were found to be predictors of alpha female status, neither the specific hormones evaluated in the present study nor the 2D:4D ratio were associated with the expression of the alpha female identity. These results challenge present assumptions about what it means to be an alpha woman, as well as challenge what is known about the alpha female nonhuman primate as being representative of the human alpha female.

Download or read book The Miseducation of Women written by James Tooley and published by Ivan R. Dee. This book was released on 2003-07-21 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Girls and boys are different. So why do our schools insist on treating them as identical? Could this misguided equality have anything to do with the increasing dissatisfaction among women that is revealed in survey after survey? Do gender-blind educational policies in fact work to women's disadvantage? Bringing together many women's voices, from Bridget Jones to Simone de Beauvoir, Betty Friedan to Germaine Greer, James Tooley challenges education's sacred cows, demanding a radical rethinking of sexual politics and a fairer way forward for women. The Miseducation of Women landed like a bombshell when it was published in England a few months ago; but Mr. Tooley's book, replete with examples and anecdotes from the United States as well as Great Britain, has equal application to the gender arguments on this side of the Atlantic.

Download or read book The Book Banned for Women Alpha written by Ignacio Jasiel HERNÁNDEZ MAYA and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-24 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I had heard to speak badly of Argentine, but what really scares me is that women "alpha" do not seem to realize that they have been manipulated. At certain times, it seems that they want to react, but return to drowse. Pilar Sordo (2005), realized in an extraordinary way that one or several generations of young women were trying to be as similar as possible to the men. Today, the situation is already present in contemporary society, through young women and even older than 30 years.The term woman alpha, is inspired by the name of alpha male or alpha female, which is used to distinguish a dominant animal. To the one who possesses greater range, to whom the others follow. In some species, the status is obtained through fights and/or physical prowess. The alpha is strong and mighty, has privileges in their group (for example, to mate).The women "alpha" refer to be successful, smart, fun, and beautiful, even though no one thinks, they just feel that way. This book explores the way in which these women act, rests in a daily newspaper, a book, whose content is invaluable as we rebel against their way of being and thoughts. Far from being leaders or dominant, there are strong lack of self-esteem, weakness, contradictions and a behavior according to a teenager.I was left with the question of whether, in Argentina, it is accentuated only (only), since it does not appear in the text a single only accentuated, we all make mistakes. In the end, under the appearance of freedom, autonomy, under a mask of success, fun, happiness, "Alpha" women believed to decide, have the power to choose (men and a certain way of life), but no. Only play a role, with taste, because they believe that the illusion of decision is something of their own, emerged from his will. Far from it, "Alpha" women are shown alone, influenced, devoid of affection, self-esteem, strength of will, of values, of moral. In return, they revel in the festivities and drunkenness, in applications of dating and relationships of a night. "Alpha" women in love of the prince and blue idolize of themselves, to the body, to the flesh, the superficial, that is to say, to vanity, vacuum, to nothing. You heard his footsteps, let us get started.

Download or read book Holistic Pedagogy written by Carlo Ricci and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-03 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book illuminates what must always be at the heart of powerful schooling and authentic learning. Its focus is on free learning, with an emphasis on early East Asian thought as a vehicle through which learning may emerge. The volume describes learning as helping the learner become more conscious, more aware. As such the authors explain how quality learning encompasses all learning that is chosen by the learner. It is non-judgmental and their idea is that if learning is done by choice then direct harm will be mitigated because quality, willed learning is not just about the individual, but includes others — it is community focused as well as self-determined. In the first part of the volume the authors look specifically at how quality willed learning can inform the state and how it can protect the rights of children. The second part looks at what quality willed learning can mean to leaders. In the last part the authors look at what it can mean for teachers and finally what it can mean for the learners themselves.

Download or read book Anything for a Hit written by Dorothy Carvello and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dorothy Carvello knows all about the music biz. She was the first female A&R executive at Atlantic Records, and one of the few in the room at RCA and Columbia. But before that, she was secretary to Ahmet Ertegun, Atlantic's infamous president, who signed acts like Aretha Franklin and Led Zeppelin, negotiated distribution deals with Mick Jagger, and added Neil Young to Crosby, Stills & Nash. The stories she tells about the kingmakers of the music biz are outrageous, but it is her sinuous friendship with Ahmet that frames her narrative. He was notoriously abusive, sexually harassing Dorothy on a daily basis. Carvello reveals here how she flipped the script and showed Ertegun and every other man who tried to control her that a woman can be just as willing to do what it takes to get a hit. Never-before-heard stories about artists like Michael Jackson, Madonna, Steven Tyler, Bon Jovi, INXS, Marc Anthony, and many more make this book a must-read for anyone looking for the real stories on what it takes for a woman to make it in a male-dominated industry.

So when the gorgeous, brilliant Zenny Iverson asks me to teach her about sex, I want to say yes, I really do. Unfortunately, there are several reasons to say no--reasons that even a very bad man like myself can't ignore. 1. She's my best friend's little sister. 2. She's too young for me. Like way too young. 3. She's a nun. Or about to be anyway. But I want her. I want her even with my best friend and God in the way, I want to teach her and touch her and love her, and I know that makes me something much worse than a very bad man. It makes me a sinner. And it's those very sins that are about to save me... ***Sinner is a standalone companion to Priest about Father Bell's brother Sean.
