Appeal in Modern Rhetoric book; similarity to another class

Different Class Activity that is Similar with my CAD101B class

I will talk about my Art of Aztec Empire class. We had to do a presentation about an article we had to read. I got an article from a scholarly source which was accurate. From the article, which was about the Aztec education, it seemed very interesting so I decided to do my presentation from that topic. As I read, there were two different types of schools. One for the wealthy and the other for the poor. The wealthy school had both genders combined and learned together. The non-wealthy school had to have the genders separated. They were separated because they had to be tough different things according to their gender. For example, the girls had to learn about becoming young independent mothers, how to cook, house caretakers, and learn new dances and how to sing, which was a big part of their religion. The boys on the other hand, did more of the outside work. Since they saw that the older men did most of the hard labor work, they wanted to teach young boys on how to become independent and mature. What the boys were taught were skills to become warriors and tradesman, learn agriculture since they did most of the yard work, crafts, martial arts, and physical endurance. Knowing what these different genders learned, remind me from the book Appeal in Modern Rhetoric, chapters Appeals to Body and also Appeals to Gender. Since these two chapters are very similar and also explain similar points , this reminded me of how in the article that I read, how there are points where the genders are separated. In my opinion, I believe that gender and body are very similar because if you think about it, they both come from one thing, which is the body. Of course, everyone chooses to be who they want to be, but what the book identifies is that they are similar because they fall into the same category. Without a body, there is no gender and vice versa. I chose those two chapters because of how the children had to be separated and be thought different things because of their gender and also society. Going onto society, I chose the chapter appeals to body because whenever there is a for say, masculine body, some automatically think of a man. They way others criticize something because of their prospective, can be harming to others, and the book somehow shows that one should not do that. Once again, I am saying how body and gender are one because of the way the chapters show the similarities.
