Popular culture eased the tension between conflicting group.

group means gender and races since popular culture started at 1910. Is it a bad thesis?

Or maybe I could change it like
White men retained their dominance during 1910s but women, people with color and the lower working class gained increasingly influential role in the expression of popular culture....

Is that also a thesis? I'm just not good in constucting words.. so i really appreciate you're help tnx........

Correct word usage?

This jerk bartender corrected me tonight [in front of company too!] on my use of the word procession. He overheard me telling my friend that "some people want more in relationships the longer they're in them - it's a natural procession." The bartender loudly ridiculed me for not using the word "progression" but isn't procession also appropriate? I avoided progression because it implies progress - no?

Anyway, please help me out. This is bugging me.

Help thinking of a descriptive word/phrase?

I have this art project I'm working on. The story behind it is like... you are innocent and carefree when suddenly you meet something that seduces you into corruption. I need a title, like a descriptive word. I have some examples:

Weaken
Venom
Poison
Devour
Bite
Quiver
Ripping
Inject

Or a phrase like "into my veins" or something...

Those words just give you that "poisoned apple" feeling. I've come up with those, but none of them seem adequate.

Tainted words. What words that once had a good or neutral meaning, are now almost unusable?

I saw someone use the word ********* on here, and I had a question once regarding the word Master (as in a Master/Apprentice setting.)
