“One person’s abnormality is another person’s life.”-Alice Dreger

The extent to which one person’s abnormality is another person’s life is relative to the scope of anatomical normality or abnormality. Genetic abnormalities that relate to gender, otherwise known as anatomical sexual variation, are part of human intersexuality. Intersex is defined as the anatomical variation from the standard male or female gender, and is a pathological variable that require medical treatment. This means that an intersex child has the sexual anatomy of both genders. Intersex genitals may therefore be a sign of an underlying medical condition, but they are not a medical problem. The notion that ...

The thrillers of Alfred Hitchcock have not been strangers to unconventional protagonists – from Vertigo’s cowardly, power-hungry Scottie Thompson to Rear Window’s incapacitated paranoiac LB Jeffries, to the hapless journalists and playboys of his early British spy capers like Foreign Correspondent and The Lady Vanishes. Part of the thrill of Hitchcock’s thrillers is seeing a clear sense of comedy and irreverence mingling evenly with the serious, atmospheric cinematography of his films. North by Northwest is no exception, mining comedy out of an otherwise highly tense spy thriller through the haplessness of his protagonist, ad executive Roger Thornhill (Cary ...

Chaucer’s “The Canterbury Tales” is a selection of stories that pilgrims use to tell stories that occurred as they traveled to a holy shrine in Canterbury.
