Why in the world would we practice torture? Torture is the action or practice of inflicting pain on someone as a punishment or to force them to do or say something, or for the pleasure of the person inflicting the pain. I totally disagree in the idea of torture. Even if the person has done something wrong towards his country or anyone, he or she does not deserve to be tortured. What can be done instead is put them in jail for many years so that they have time to rethink what they did and have time away from humans. I treat this issue with the same respect of the golden rule: “Treat others the way you want to be treated.” If you don’t want to be tortured, don’t torture others. Sometimes some officials torture criminals or people for the fun of it, and that’s when it absolutely needs to be stopped. Water boarding is a form of torture that has water poured on a person until he or she gasps for air and feels like they are drowning. Even if some people contradict that water boarding is not a form of torture, you are putting the person through physical and psychological condemnation and even Mr. President Barack Obama banned the idea of water boarding.

In Judy Brady’s //I want a Wife,// published in the feminist Ms. Magazine in (1971), proves that she is a wife as well as a mother and how women like her are expected to be in the role as a wife. She asserts her point by telling us an incident that happened to her one day with one friend and gives a whole list of ideas and things that a wife should do, or is expected to do. In order to give the reader an idea of a wife’s role play, Brady uses her own wants to describe everything a wife does and how she too would like a wife because it is so hard on her and other women who are playing the role of a “wife”. By using her friend’s story and her own point of view, she makes the reader know how much work is expected of a woman and how it is so hard to fulfill the wants of men.

 * 12/11/11 Orwell's Message**

The message that Orwell is trying to convey within his novel is to the young society and to let them know that they need to use their voice before the government starts taking action even if they do not like what they are doing. He does this by putting the Big Brother into place. Big Brother is the government and Orwell and Julia are the people representing us. They hate the controlling just as much as we would hate a government over ruling us. Big Brother watches over everyone at any moment they want.

The purpose of the novel that Orwell wanted the reader to gain after reading 1984 is that he wants us to use our own voice and speak up without fear of the government. He wants us to change the future before the future changes us. He does this by making a novel that appeals to the youth in a society and puts in events that are occurring in the actual world.

I believe we are not very far from becoming into a technology driven world just like this one in Oceania. Orwell saw this becoming of humans and gave a heads up. If you think about reality, we have everything in our hands to make this happen. Our world has touch screens everywhere and web cameras almost in all the laptops that are coming out. Maybe some people don’t know but if there is some freak out there and I know there is, can stalk into your life and know how you look and see what you are doing.
