Hey I need help on how to start an essay. My task is to write an essay in response to the question:
"Times have changed; gender roles are no longer clearly defined."
Please give me some tips on how to start and what to put in the essay because i really suck at writing essays.
And it has to be 1000~1500 words *SO LONG >:(*
Thanks for any help
Hi,
Introduction
the topic is not too hard and many psychologists and sociologists have focused on this issue through last few years. U should open the introduction with a motivator. The motivator can be a historical event or the roles of men and women in society changing. People love the history because it is something like story. Or u can open the first paragraph with a personal experience. Statistic is another option. Talk about the the number of men and women who work today and compare it with last centuries.
Then u need to writ a thesis statement. What are you going to discuss in the essay? What is the main idea of the essay? answer these questions as a thesis statement in the introduction.
The next step is a blueprint. Write a sentence to connect the introduction to the body. What issues are you going to argue in the body? the answer of this question is a blueprint. It can be the role of gender in political, social, and psychological issues.
Body :(explain the issues that u mentioned as blueprint. For example: in the first paragraph write how men and women contribute to political problems. In the nex paragraph write about civic roles of men and women, and so on.
Conclusion : Reword the introduction and briefly state the main points that u discussed throughout the essay. , then write a clincher.

Ahmad
