AIDS is becoming increasingly more widespread and prominent in our culture today. Melinda Gates realizes this is occurring; especially in India. Her article “AIDS and India” talks about the devastating effect AIDS will have and is already having on this country. She vividly describes the situation and how it can be changed. Gates uses many rhetorical devices to help gain the acceptance of the audience. She wants others to support her in her cause to educate those in India so that AIDS does not continue to spread all over the country.
In our history women have always been the prominent nurturers and care givers for children. Women are able to have enormous amounts of compassion towards others. This can be greatly seen in times of natural disasters when women help give food and clothing to those in need. Thinking back to childhood it is apparent that children who are hurt or sick will most likely go to their mothers for comfort. While men can also be great comforters, there is something in women’s nature that allows them to excel when it comes to nurturing. Melinda Gates directs her argument specifically toward women by using information most important and prominent to females to better the chances of making a difference.
