Latrell Hayes Eng. #10 Technology is so important to the human society. I doubt that we as humans can live without technology. Everybody has some type of technology in his or her house. // Technology is moving so quickly and it is made for certain people not all. // Like video games and cell phones.

Video games are more played by men then women. The players of the games start at a young age. "These range from kids as young as 9 or 10 (they play console games) to people in their 30s and 40s (they play the more complicated PC games). Within this range, there is one constant--the players are almost entirely male." []. Most of the video games are made with violence and the main goal of most of these games deal with killing as many adversaries in a period of time. // “Flesh Feast // was described in //Gamer fan// magazine as "Blood-spurting, head-rolling, corpse-hackin' action," where the point is to "club, chainsaw, shoot, poke, punch, kick, nail, impale, run over, and drown your adversaries ... with everything from a baseball bat to a freshly liberated zombie arm." []. Males play games more than women is because like to win. "After analyzing the MRI data, the researchers found participants showed activation in the brain’s mesocorticolimbic center, the region typically associated with reward and addiction. Male brains, however, showed much greater activation, and the amount increased as they gained more territory. This was not the case with women." [|//http://www.neatorama.com/2008/12/27/why-men-like-to-play-video-games-more-than-women///]. There are some women who like to play games.

There isn’t much of the women population that likes to play games. Video games are more of a man thing than woman. "Recent estimates have the percentage of women gamers at about 10 percent, topping out as high as 25 percent in online gaming. Why? Many of the games are violent, dedicated to the goal of killing as many adversaries as possible in the shortest amount of time." []. The video games designed for women aren’t really fun. Some effort has been made to design games specifically for girls and women. There is the //Cosmopolitan Virtual Makeover// (which allows you to scan your face and then make it over), //Barbie Fashion Makeover//, and //Let's Talk About Me//. More frightening than //Flesh Feast// or //Murder Death Kill// is //Rockett's Secret Invitation// from Purple Moon, a "girls' entertainment company." []. Females are more into cliques, being higher in the popularity, and cell phones.

// Cell phones are the most used technology. The average person owns a cell phone. Teenagers mostly use these phones ////. //Cell phones have been a way for teenagers to escape dull classes by using text message. "In the last two years, text messages - which cell carriers generally limit to 160 characters - have become a rage among teenagers, who embrace the technology as yet another way to escape a boring class or stay in touch with friends." []. Teenagers own a lot of the new phones.

Technology has had many new developments. Technology has advance so swiftly, the simplest things are really cheap. "Phones are really a lifeline for many people but the technology is advancing so quickly that a simple cell phone is fairly cheap". []. There are new phones made in every two or three months, which makes the older phones less money then, they were because it doesn’t have the new updates.

In conclusion do you think human civilization can last without technology? Well I think that with that society is now that we can't. Most of my peers have agreed with me that we can’t go without technology.
