How do tattoos of men differ from the ones women choose? Tattooing is an art form which means to change a skin color by inserting a pigment into it. According to historians, the prehistoric people practiced tattooing at least 12,000 years ago. Nowadays this form of art is more popular and socially acceptable than ever. Despite the fact that both men and women practicing it, there are a lot of differences in which tattoos they are choose and why. Let us talk about these contrasts. First, let us talk about men. According to the statistics, there are more men who have tattoos than women. For example, in the U.S., it is 15% of men versus 13% of women. Then, there is a difference in which places on their bodies men prefer to have tattoos. The most popular places are backs and shoulders. Also, they usually give preferences to big arts with a strong graphical base. Due to a complexity and size of such kind of tattoos, the process of tattooing can be very painful for men, because they have more lower pain threshold. Women, on the other hand, try to get more meaningful tattoos. Due to a strong emotional attachment to tattoos, more women regret about them than men. Usually, they prefer smaller in size tattoo and placed it on the wrist or ankle. As a rule, women can stand the pain much easier than man, because women have more higher pain threshold. It makes the process of tattooing less painful. Also, there is a scientific fact that women’s skin is softer than men’s and this can affect the absorbency of the tattoo ink. Men and women perceive tattoos of each other in the different way. According to studies of psychologist Nicolas Guéguen of the Université de Bretagne-Sud, men tend to overestimate women's sexual intentions. They perceive tattooed women as more liberated, and likely try to get to know her. Women, in turn, perceive tattooed men as more masculine, dominant and aggressive. But both men and women assessed tattooed person as worse potential partner and parent than person without tattoos. As stated above, there are a lot of differences in men's and women's tattoos. Men prefer to get more big in size, graphically based tattoos while women prefer to get something small, symbolic or personal. In spite of those differences, the popularity of tattooing is growing year by year in those and others. However, well-chosen tattoo can properly complement a person's style.

Which is better, private school, public school or homeschooling? As John F. Kennedy said, "a child miseducated is a child lost". Each family wants to make their children well educated. One of the important steps on the way to high-level of education is the choice of school. Whether it is public or private, here are the good and bad of both. Also, some parents preferred to teach their children by themselves, which calls "homeschooling". Let us talk about all of these ways. Private schools, also known to many as independent schools, are fully supported by the payment of fees. There are a lot of distinguished leaders in politics, business and society, who finished a private school. These schools have a lot of advantages: individualised attention for the students due to smaller classes; better access to learning resources; a wide range of specialisations such as arts, athletics and science; more strict discipline and promotion of learning. One of the main drawbacks is a cost: few can afford this type of education. Also, private schools increase inequality and cultivate elitism. Public schools, as opposed to private schools, usually are far more affordable to attend, because these school are funded by local government. Public schools may also provide a lot of free activities for a students such as sports, arts and swimming pools. Another advantage is children learn how to be a part of a big and diverse social community. One the other hand, one of the main issues of government schools is overcrowding, thereby leading to a lack of discipline and individual attention for each student. Also, some public schools have a poor access to learning resources. Some parents also choose homeschooling for their children. One of the main benefits is parent can be satisfied that his child is learning in a proper way. It gives more educational freedom and flexibility. Also, homeschooling is safeguarding children from school bullying. On the other hand, it forces parents to be more responsible, because they have to plan school-time and activities and handle the administrative work of being a teacher. Also, homeschoolers have less communication with peers, which can make a negative impact to their socialisation. As stated above, each of these variants has negative and positive sides. First of all, family's choice should be based on individual characteristics of the child and family. As for me, private schools have more advantages then public schools or homeschooling, but I agree that there are many types and many various wonderful schools.

Is prom worth the cost? A promenade dance, most commonly called a prom, is a semi-formal dance of high school students. This tradition is widely distributed all over the world, but it is the most popular in the United States. Prom has advantages, as well as disadvantages. According to those, an every student should decide for himself about participation in such kind of events. It depends on many personal factors, but, in my opinion, it doesn't worth it. One the one hand, there are many positive reasons for prom. Basically, for many students high school is a place, where they spent four years of their lives. In most cases, people get used to school during this time. In some sense, it is the high point of student's life and a ritualised transition from childhood to adulthood. Also, it is a great opportunity for students to relax and spend time with friends after hard work for months of study. For many people it could be the last event they attend with their high school friends. One the other hand, proms have lots of disadvantages. First of all, it is very expensive. According to statistics, the average household spend about $1,100 on prom-related experience. The major reason for that is the popularity of social media. That is why every student wants to look perfect. Another negative consequence is teens more likely to be involved in a car accident, during the prom season. A third of alcohol-related teen traffic fatalities occur between April and June, which is considered the peak of prom season. Those reasons incline me to a negative perception of prom. It worth mentioning a few things that have an impact on popularity of prom. First, popular movies and novels attest to the importance of prom themes. Then, an impact of previous generations to current generation. According to the tradition, this generation will tell the next generation about importance of prom. Also, prom important for economy, because there is an entire industry based of renting formal costumes to prom attendees, renting limousines or buses. Many historians believe that proms may have existed at colleges as early as the late 19th century. In spite of the long history, prom does not lost its popularity and continues to be a notable celebration in the social climate of high schools. Moreover, year by year it becomes more common. There are pros and cons of attending proms. As I said early, I don't think that it worth it. You can have a good time with company of close friends or family.

How can we make football safer? Football is one of the most popular sport games in the world. About 1.04 million American boys participated in a high school football program. The game requires conditioning and strength training. It also teaches the value of teamwork, leadership and having a good work ethic. However, despite all benefits, there are lots of dangerous consequence including concussions, fractures and meniscus tears. These injuries can sometimes be fatal. How can we make football safer? First, we must to ensure that at least one doctor attends on the sidelines in each game. Some schools do not have a trainer and they can not evaluate players immediately. The presence of a doctor helps to provide medical care expeditiously and may help to prevent fatal cases. Moreover, according to a new safety rule of NFL, an injury spotter can stop the game if a player appears to have suffered from a brain injury. Second, we have to strengthen a medical examination during a gap between seasons. It is very important to detect health problems at an earlier stage. In most cases initial diagnostics is the key to prevention of serious problems. If we had located such kind of problems early, we would have prevented many deaths. Third, in my personal opinion, we must prohibit children below 12 years old to play football at all. The negative impacts of the sport are growing exponentially for young people. According to a study published in the journal Nature’s Translational Psychiatry, injuries in that age are more dangerous and may have more adverse effects for their future lives. There are lots of other ways to keep yourself in fit and develop your strengths. In conclusion, then, one thing is clear: even though football has lots of indisputable benefits, we can not ignore its disadvantages. Huge popularity of football involves more and more young players. So, if we can not give up playing such kind of dangerous game, we should take care of that safety.
