Option 1

 * Article title: Gender Essentialism
 * Article Evaluation: The article's content is fundamentally relevant. It addresses the topic in a definitive context. However, the article has instances where it is partial and issuing bias claims. Claims are backed by citations but they are only supported by a single source; this needs to be ameliorated. The article indeed mentions marginalized and misrepresented groups, but it is at brevity and a bit myopic in scope and relatedness. Additionally, the article would improve in content and comprehension greatly if more intention was exerted in the varying context to which gender essentialism manifest itself and how it influences and interact with other concepts and institutions.

Option 2

 * Article title: Violence and Intersectionality
 * Article Evaluation: The article is the best out of all that I have included on this form. The historical background information within the article is adroit and considerable. The information is relevant and the citations are reputable and staunch. The focus of the article is violence and intersectionality, but I would suggest adding more pertinent details entailing other discriminated or misrepresented groups who are made to the on the peripheral. I would also recommend supplying more information regarding Black women and violence currently. The section in the article issues statistics, but does not further or elucidate on the methods that create these statistics. There is also a section that heads the stereotypes for justification of violence against Black women. All that is mentioned there is rap music's influence on the topic. Although, there is a degree of truth to that, solely listing that asserts blame on rap and R&B music, while ignoring systems and institutions at play. This is a bit tone deaf in my opinion and seems to operate with some a bit of bias.

Option 3

 * Article title: Gendered Sexuality
 * Article Evaluation: The neutrality of the article is questionable. It's content is relevant, although it posits itself from a more sociological approach. The citations are reliable and appropriate. The article details the difference concerning gendered sexuality in relation to social constructs and ideologies, but is not very explicit in how it intersects within marginalized communities, especially Black women, women of color, and those identifying as LGBTQ+. The article does include the implications and consequences of gendered aspects about health and mass media, but there is surely a dearth of information that otherwise would augment the article's content. The article could even involve the bias of gender in certain spaces.
