Option 1

 * Article title
 * Gender in security studies
 * Article Evaluation
 * Gender in security studies is a really interesting piece as it talks about how gender norms cause women in power to be more violent in times of conflict so as not to seem weak. The article could start with a more descriptive beginning to illustrate what the author is talking about. While the author uses case studies and data to describe the connection between gender and security, especially among political leaders, only a few sentences are given to each source to explain the findings. The author doesn't really explain why these patterns have arisen. The piece has a 34 completeness score and a "S" class rating.

Option 2

 * Article title:
 * Menstrual Leave
 * Article Evaluation:
 * Menstrual leave is an extremely important conversation as it can negatively affect women's careers since it has many stigmas attached to it. The article discusses multiple aspects of the menstrual leave conversation, looking at the history of menstrual leave policies, case studies, etc. However, certain parts like the "Challenges" section could use more information, especially to show multiple perspectives. There seems to be a variety of different sources used for the article, however, I would hope to add more academic journals to the list. This piece had a completeness score of 45 and a class ranking of "S".

Option 3

 * Article title:
 * Zipper System
 * Article Evaluation:
 * The zipper system is an important aspect of democracy as it recognizes how gendered politics is and creates space for female politicians to take office. This article is really well written as it shows  multiple viewpoints and different examples of how zipper systems have been used to help inform readers about its role in global government systems. It also uses a range of sources and cites them well. Moving forward, one could look at more recent journal articles to expand upon the zipper system's role in the world and how it may be limited by only looking at men and women. The article has a completeness score of 57 and a class ranking of "S".
