About me - Rosemary Chaulk

Life can be quite difficult for some individuals. Being a transexual woman has been very difficult and the road at times was rough. To be a transexual is to be disposable in the eyes of society which is trying to marginalize and dismiss me as having a severe

Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Identity

We really have two identities, we have the identity that the world gives us by what it perceives and we have the identity that we give to ourselves. Somewhere between the world of what should be and the world of what is, that is where our identity lies. Somewhere between what we wanted to do and what we ended up doing, but a...

Celebrations & Holidays > Thanksgiving Secrets to enjoying family holidays

Thanksgiving and Christmas can be two of the hardest times of the year for some people. Do you really think the suicide rate rises at Christmas because a person wants to be a killjoy and ruin someone's holidays? Many who suffer during the holidays live lonely isolated lives abandoned by the world and their families. Let me a...

Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Losing our freedom of speech

We have lost our first amendment right of freedom of speech. Right now we are still allowed to ramble on about anything but the NSA and the Bush administration are taking notes, filing it all away and keeping it to use against us in the future. I have read many articles on Helium by writers who say they have to be careful ab...

Society & Lifestyle > Gender Issues Evaluating advertisements using cross-dressed men and whether the transgendered community is negatively affected

Badly crossdressed men seem to be a regular fall back for some unimaginative advertising agencies. The transgendered community continues to be the target of cruel humor on television dished out by phobic ad agencies. Many agencies in their haste to make fun of this group knowingly or unknowingly cross the lines of decency wh...

Society & Lifestyle > Social Values & Norms Downward mobility and what it means for society

The downward mobility of the middle class will turn out to be the demise of our once great nation. Many products from stores like Wal-Mart come at the expense of American jobs. If that is not bad enough outsourcing has removed another huge chunk of jobs from the American economy. Years ago it would have been thought unpatrio...

Politics, News & Issues > Political & Economic Theory American democracy on the road to dictatorship

Fear is the ultimate force. Fear will manipulate more people and is more oppressive than any other form of control. Fear can be consumptive causing people to suspend rational thought. Fear can force people to make choices they would never make and often times live to regret. Fear can cause you to lose your perspective as to ...

Religion & Spirituality > Atheism & Agnosticism Why human beings don't need a religion

It is amusing that people believe that society needs a religion to exist. They believe that if we don't have that threat of eternal damnation in Hell that society would fall apart with people raping and pillaging. These people assert that without a God and the threat of eternal punishment for sinners that there is no reason ...

Society & Lifestyle > Gender Issues Does biology or society have a stronger influence on the development of our gender identity?

Some gender specialist feel that the brain receives it's gender about six weeks after conception and that once this gender is set there is no changing it. X-rays of the brain show that there are differences in the areas of the brain used by men and women. In essence men and women think differently and act differently. The le...

Arts & Humanities > Thoughts on Writing Does the current publishing industry actually hurt writers and limit creativity?

The current publishing industry does more harm to writers than it ever does to help them. An average publisher will publish five novels a year and they may receive over fifty thousand submittals a year. Surly in those forty nine thousand nine hundred and ninety five books rejected there are at least a few if not many, storie...

Politics, News & Issues > Conservation Eliminating junk mail to help the environment

Eliminating Junk Mail Should there be a no junk mail list similar to the no call list to eliminate unsolicited junk mail? I had to laugh at a recent celebrity on national television suggesting to us that we try to use the toilet paper one sheet at a time to save the environment, how disconnected from the real world can she b...
