The television, one of the greatest and important inventions of the 20th century, transformed the way people in society consume news and other entertainment motion pictures. Researchers, scholars and media analysts have in the past engaged in numerous debates on whether the television as a commodity is worth consuming (Miller 13). Whereas some of the arguments from these researchers, scholars and media analysis promote the fact that the television as a mass medium is an important invention, other arguments have dismissed it with arguments that the television is simply a toaster-like appliance with pictures (Miller 13). Whereas this is the case, there is a need to observe that the television is one of the inventions that has transformed different consumption elements in society. This essay thesis explores how the issues of taste and class can be evident in television consumption practices.
To begin with, different people have different cultural and personal preferences and choice, which influence their preferences and choice when consuming the media and in this case television. In his analysis of tastes, Bourdieu argues that tastes are as a result of social conditioning that a person is exposed to in life (Stringfellow, MacLaren, Maclean and O’Gorman 80). Speaking from this point of view, there is a need to observe that different people in society have different consumption patterns of the television. An analysis of different viewers indicates that certain viewers in society are likely to prefer certain television programs or genres over others. For instance, the television consumption tastes as far as film and movies are concerned between men and women vary significantly, with men likely to watch action genre while women have a high likelihood of watching romance genre. Research and study findings reveal that men in society, due to social conditioning that emphasise on manly strength have a likelihood of watching action movies as a way to satisfy their tastes (Holt and Thompson 425). In this case, most societies condition their male children to exhibit strength and the ability to defend as key male characteristic. Therefore, when it comes to mass media consumption, men are likely to choose television programming that are affiliated with their character and nature as individuals in society. On the other hand, most societies teach women to be gentle, loving and caring. As a result of this, most women are likely to avoid action movies since this genre of movies portray features that are contrary to their nature. With this in mind, one can observe that taste is evident in television consumption practices mainly because of the societal differences that exist between people. This is affirmed in past research and study findings that reveal that “â€tastes (i.e., manifested preferences) are the practical affirmation of an inevitable difference†(Bourdieu 56). This implies that due to the gender differences that exist because of the socialisation process in most societies, which establishes a foundation for differences between men and women in society, there is likely to emerge differences in preferences as far as television consumption is concerned.
One of the issues that are evident as far as taste and television consumption is concerned is the...

When it comes to dressing lingerie slip, I believe every girl can say a lot of her own opinions.

When it comes to what to wear that can stir up the heartstrings of the male god, it must be fun underwear~

Whether you want to flirt or the old husband and wife rekindle their passion, erotic underwear is an essential erotic weapon.

However, many sisters bought interesting underwear carefully and took it home with full expectation. As a result, they instantly understood the difference between sellers and buyers in the fitting process( You know ~)

What's the matter? Are you opening it the wrong way? Or your figure failed?

Don't panic, sister. No one is perfect. Buyers have buyers' tricks. Most of the time, it's not necessarily your pot!

In fact, the design of many interesting underwear does not conform to the body curve of Asians! Why do you say that? This goes back to——

Development history of sexy underwear

The earliest erotic underwear in history can be traced back to the 18th century. It is called corset or whale bone corset. It appeared as a routine ceremony at the sacrifice ceremony in France.

At the beginning, the design concept was very in line with European aesthetics, keeping the slender waist and tall chest in a tough tie.

In the 18th century, China was still in the Qing Dynasty. At that time, the domestic aesthetic stress was indeed women's Square, gentle.

Seeing here, you may ask, "isn't the belly pocket a unique interesting underwear in China?"

The ancient belly pocket can only be regarded as girls' underwear, not fun underwear

Because every girl should wear a belly pocket, and the belly pocket is not to show the beauty of lines, but to cover all the places that can be covered. It is a secret symbol.

Even in modern times, the perfect S-shaped curve, protrusion and back warping are still the standard aesthetics in the hearts of many people. For example, the benchmark in the sexy underwear industry - kawaii lingerie, the selected model is always big chest, big waist, thin legs.

This also leads to interesting underwear along such a style, only highlighting the curve, but rarely considering the difference in figure.

Do you want to say goodbye to the freedom of "sexy underwear"?

Unwanted.

Even if there are few erotic underwear, considering the difference of figure and the more and more diversified style of erotic underwear, you can still study the style and details of erotic underwear according to your figure and find the most suitable erotic underwear.

Then next, I will analyze one by one, which types of sexy underwear are suitable for girls with different shapes and different skin colors?

How to choose sexy underwear for different shapes?

·O-shape posture

The so-called O-shape is a fat sister with more fat on her body.

Some people think that a fat girl destroys everything. Such a girl doesn't look good in anything? Then you are wrong. Most O-shaped sisters have an advantage that many people envy - large breasts.

Therefore, it is perfect for you to show more chest lines without wearing [tight clothes highlighting fat].

This idea is converted to fun underwear, which is to show the chest lines as much as possible and weaken or cover the exposed fat, such as breast, waist, hips and thigh roots.

The Structure of Check Valve

The structure, principle and installation notice of check valve
Check valve is also known as reverse flow valve, back pressure valve, one-way valve. This kind of valve is automatically opened and closed by the flow and the medium of the pipeline itself. It belongs to an automatic valve.

The check valve is used for the piping system, the main function is to prevent the medium from flowing back, to prevent the pump and its drive motor from reversing, and to discharge the medium in the container.

The check valve can also be used to provide a supply to the auxiliary system where the pressure may rise above the pressure of the main system. The check valve can be applied to pipelines of various mediums according to the different materials.

Check valve is installed in the pipeline, which becomes one of the components of the complete fluid pipeline, the valve will open and close the process by which it is affected by the system transient flow state; in turn, the valve closure have made effect on the fluid flow state.

The working characteristic of the check valve is that the load varies greatly, the opening and closing frequency is small, the input is closed or opened, the cycle is very long, and the movement of moving parts is not required.

But once again "switching" requirements, you must move flexibly, this requirement has more severe and more common mechanical movement. As the valve is in the most practical use, has rapid qualitative determination of closure, and in the moment of valve closure, the medium is the direction of flow, with the valve closed, medium speed is from maximum back to zero quickly, and the pressure is rapidly increased, which is likely to damage the pipeline system water hammer phenomenon.

The water hammer of the check valve is more prominent for the high pressure pipeline system in which multiple pumps are connected in parallel. Water hammer is a pressure wave to a transient flow in a pressure pipe. It is a hydraulic shock caused by the pressure rise or fall, caused by the change of fluid velocity in the pressure pipe.

The physical causes are fluid compressibility, fluid motion inertia and pipe elasticity. In order to prevent water hammer in pipes hidden for many years, people designed with a number of new structures, new materials for the valve, in order to ensure the performance of check valves at the same time, minimization of the impact of water hammer have made gratifying progress.

Check valves include many types, such as ball check valves and butterfly check valves. Butterfly check valves include swing check valves and lift check valves. The swing check valve has a hinge mechanism and a gate like valve free against the inclined seat surface.

In order to ensure that the valve can reach the appropriate position of the seat surface at any time, the disc is designed in the hinge mechanism so that the disc has enough swing space to make the disc real and comprehensive contact with the valve seat. The disc can be made of metal or leather, rubber, or synthetic coverage, depending on performance requirements. The swing check valve is almost completely open and the fluid pressure is almost unimpeded, so the pressure of the valve is relatively small. The lift check valve is located on the valve seat and the sealing surface of the valve seat.

The installation and use of check valves shall be noted:
1, vertical lift check valve should be installed on the vertical pipe.
