Adolescents
Toth and Ephron might have been born around the same time, but did not share the same views for the most part about adolescents. Ephron had a very mentally troubled adolescents while, Toth's account of her adolescents was very cut and dry. Ephron wrote about her whole life mostly from age 10 to her present age. The writers didn't have much similarities, except that they both grew up in the same time and that they both had boyfriends that didn't really respect. They both drove in their boyfriends car's a lot. Another similarity is that Toth and Ephron's first kiss was discussed in their works. The first kiss is a major experience in a person's life. They both thought it was very important to put in they're stories. Many differences arose in the author's tons and attitudes towards their adolescence's.
It may not be that much but it does happen. Ephron wrote with more sprit and it seemed that it was a very personal story. Even though the body leads the mind most of the time the mind leads the body also. Updike more bluntly believes that men are lead by their *censored*s and must spread the word. I am trying to say that men think with their *censored*s more than they think with their heads. MostlyThe little head is telling the big head what to do. Men talk to each other about girls to brag, its male bonding at its peak. "The Disposable Rocket" and " Locker room Talk" were two very different works. So I don't believe that I am wrong with my assumptions that men think about sex too much. Toth and Ephron wrote about the same thing but the ways that they wrote about it was very different. You could tell that Ephron was much more involved in her account of her adolescents. She put her heart and her soul into the work and, didn't even think twice about embarrassing her self. In "Shaping up the Absurd" Ephron took into count how embarrassed she was and how she didn't like her self. Dunn believes that men talk like that because they lack something, while Updike says that men do it because it's their nature.
