2. If you are in a position of power, you are happy.
Response: Many examples from the books we have read either contradict or prove this statement. Something that proves this statement is, in Lord of the Flies we saw that as Jack began to gain followers of his own the power went to his head and he was, in a sense, happy. I think that just because you are in a position of power, it doesn't mean that you are necessarily happy. Someone could easily be unhappy while in a position of power.
5. Women are more compassionate and less violent than men.
Response: Men are thought to be more violent than women in today's world, but women are capable of doing most of the same things men are. In ancient times, the men left their villages to hunt and gather food, and women stayed inside and cooked or wove cloth, but just because things were like this then, doesn't mean that they are incapable of violence. From my perspective, women and men can be equally violent.
