In the article " Is Gender - Based Pricing Fair?" they are discussing how businesses are charging men an women different prices for the same type of services, and how different people does not think that it is fair.
I think that they should charge women an men different prices, depending on how much stuff they are getting one, either at a salon or barbershop because i women needs many more things done then men do.
Some people in the article is saying " we all have a basic civil right, to pay the same thing for the same service". Meaning that we all have a right as male/female citizens of the unite states to pay the same price as one another, because we all are equal individuals.
Some people that agree with the fact that women an men shouldn't pay the same amount say that business should be free to charge what they please. They also said it might cost different prices, if your are getting long hair cut then if you get short hair cut, does not really matter if you are a woman or man.
What if both woman and a man get their hair cut? But both hair is short, would it cost the same price for different prices?
the article says in this type of problem, then the pricing might only be different if one of their hair is different from one another. Other then that then no the pricing for the woman an the man would be the same.

Historically Incorrect Canoodling
In the article, " Historically Incorrect Canoodling" reporter, Stephanie Coontz talks about how people are mistaking the meaning of Valentines Day from the original meanings created by the Pulp.
Some people believe that couples, and noncouples are just having unmeaningful sex and are are not getting married because they love one another.The article states, " Valentine's Day was originally created by the Roman Catholic Church as a limit on sexual passion." So basically back in the day, like in the 1900's , Valentine's Day was not a day for people to show their love for one another, it was a day for the complete opposite.
I think that Valentine's Day should be for people to go all out of their ways to make the person they love feel special. A day full of happiness and joy. Not a day for people to not love one another.
"For the church , the message of Valentine's Day was that while marriage had a place in society, although not the highest place, romance had place in marriage". Basically love was not the main reason for people to get married. They would just get married for the fun of it, not because they ha true love for their partner. One top of not having love for your wife, if you had sex with your partner that was a sin. Back then sex was only use for making babies that's all, while having sex with your partner you could not enjoy it.
I think that the meaning of Valentine's Day change from how it was back in the days, because over the year people begun to gain feelings for the person they was with, or the person they ha children with.

Failure is not an option
In the article, " Failure Is Not An Option", they discuss how important China's college entrance exam is.
In order to get into college and or university in China, you would have to take a nine hour exam , and you must pass it so that from high school you go to college. If you do not pass that exam then you would have to wait another year to take the exam again.
Out of 9,000,000 students in china, only 3 or 4 students are able to continue onto college.
I think that it is not far that all of them students worked their way through high school and are excited to go to college and then have to take an additional test that is going to take for ever to do. This could cause depression on students because they would be studying day and night, 24/7.
The article also stated that the test does not just determine weather you move on to college or a university but it also determines a selection that has a huge influence on career prospects. So now by the students knowing that, they would be more disappointed because their dream career would be on hold for another year if they don't pass the exam.
I think that the test should be a little bit shorter than 9 hours because , the reason the students might be not passing is because they are getting tired. I also think that they should they should be able to at least know what questions they got wrong so that they can know what to really study on.
