Bitches be Trippin'


I did not completely understand what an inquiry essay is supposed to look like but after reading "Looking at Women" and "No Wonder They Call me a Bitch", I understand them a little more. “Looking at Women” by Scott, is an inquiry essay that slightly differs to “No Wonder They Call me a Bitch” by Ann. The major difference is that “No Wonder They Call me a Bitch” is about a woman’s personal account experimenting with eating a variety of dog foods while “Looking at Women” is about a man’s personal account of his experiences with women and how men look at them. Also, Scott poses a question that is throughout the entire paper and is answered but Ann does not, she tells you her question in the first paragraph. Ann does not ask the reader a question, she just wrote about her answer to a question she had about dog food. They both begin their essays with a question they have had since they were children. I personally think Scott’s approach to answering his question is much more interesting because he does not flat out ask the reader while Ann’s is more straightforward. Her essay is also repetitive and lacking substance, all she talks about is the different kinds of food she tried. This expanded my understanding of an inquiry because I was not completely sure what to write about but now I am starting to get an idea of what to write about. These two essays have given me the idea to write about how dangerous Monster is to drink. I have been drinking them since I was a child, everyone always comments how bad they are for you but I have always ignored them. Now I want to know what exactly is so bad about Monster Energy Drinks.
