By: Zach Ahearn At their core, fraternities are social organizations found in higher education institutions around the United States. Fraternities are part of a social society called “Greek Life,” mainly because of its use of Greek letters to signify the different fraternities. Although co-ed fraternities do exist, the majority of how Greek Life is split up is boys join fraternities and girls join sororities. That is why the community of college students in a fraternity is called a brotherhood. This concept may sound foreign and ridiculous to people outside the United States, but for many colleges around America, it dominates the social scene.

In December 2023 the movie Poor Things amazed all moviegoers with its surreal Victorian aesthetics and carefully crafted plot settings, and it stirred up a wide discussion on feminism and philosophical questions. The plot revolves around a female protagonist Bella Baxter, whose dying body is transplanted with the brain of her fetus in the womb by a surgeon named Godwin. The movie then sees Bella embarking on several stages of a self-discovery journey, traveling across the European continent to explore both the world and herself. What’s interesting is the fact that she is created by a man, raised by men, and introduced to the real world by a man—while in the end she enlightens herself and seeks the meaning of life on her own. This article will mainly focus on the deeper meanings behind Bella’s stages of growth, as well as the patriarchal traits represented by the male characters around her. |
