I need help on my essay outline.
How could I break down my sub-topic: personal expression into two using the following points; freedom of thought, freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom of conscious, freedom to make choices and freedom to travel?
Freedom to travel, I mean to go anywhere you want to go without consenting to any authorities.
Also, are equal opportunities, personal expression and sexual freedom all relate to "independent freedom" (liberty, democracy, rights, etc.) ? I'm asking this because I'm using "independent freedom" as my focus and to formulate my thesis.
For sexual freedom, I mean like no emasculation or empowerment.
And for my two points mentioned above, are they the same, am I repeating myself?
Another teacher and I have read your post several times and I'm still confused.
You want to break your topic of "personal expression" into two parts -- right? It seems to me that you could divide it between internal freedoms -- thought, consciousness, make choices -- and external or behavioral freedoms -- speech, assembly, travel.
I'm sorry -- but I don't understand this statement at all. "Also, are equal opportunities, personal expression and sexual freedom all relate to "independent freedom" (liberty, democracy, rights, etc.) ? "
Please clarify and we'll try to help you.
My focus is "independent freedom" or otherwise known as liberty. Are the following sub-topics: equal rights, personal expression and sexual freedom relevant to my focus? Like, none of those sub-topics are 'out of place'.
My points for each sub-topics:
Equal Rights (basically dealing with against discrimination)
1. Voting Rights
2. Racial Rights
3. Disability Rights
Personal Expression
1. Freedom of Thought
2. Freedom of Consciousness
3. Freedom to make choices
4. Freedom of speech
5. Freedom of assembly
6. Freedom to travel
Sexual Freedom
1. No emasculation
2. No empowerment between genders
Your first two major points seem relevant to your focus.
Your third -- "Sexual freedom" is still murky to me. What do you mean by your two subpoints?
For sexual freedom, I mean people should not use their sexuality to gain control, power, etc.
For "no emasculation", I'm saying that males or females should not use their sexual appeal to make others weak - sort of a femme fatale like the greek mythology, Sirens.
As for "no empowerment between genders", I'm basically saying matriarchy - don't let women dictate your sexual life - don't let them tell you what you can and cannot do.
To break down your sub-topic of personal expression into two using the given points, you can consider grouping them as follows:
1. Freedom of thought, freedom of speech, and freedom of assembly: These three points all relate to the freedom to express oneself intellectually and verbally. Grouping them together highlights the importance of being able to think freely, speak your mind, and gather with others to express and share ideas.
2. Freedom of conscious, freedom to make choices, and freedom to travel: These three points revolve around personal autonomy and the ability to make decisions and take actions according to one's own beliefs and desires. Freedom of conscious refers to the freedom to follow one's moral or ethical beliefs, while freedom to make choices encompasses the ability to decide for oneself. Lastly, freedom to travel represents the freedom to move geographically without undue restrictions.
Regarding your second question, while equal opportunities, personal expression, and sexual freedom are all related to various aspects of freedom, they may not necessarily fall under the specific category of "independent freedom" (liberty, democracy, rights, etc.) that you mentioned. "Independent freedom" typically encompasses broader political and social concepts, whereas these specific topics focus on individual rights and self-expression. It could be argued that they are closely related and might overlap to some degree, but they may not be fully synonymous.
