A thesis statement, for example, might read: Judy Syfer’s essay “I Want a Wife” exaggerates the marital expectations facing women in our society today. The following sentence could continue: Those expectations include managing a household, maintaining a career, and having a good relationship with a spouse.

Thesis statements are one sentence long and are focused, clear, declarative, and written in third person voice.

Logos: Judy Brady’s article contains clear arguments. One of her arguments is that women are expected to do too much. She doesn’t deliver this message directly, but refers to it by listing the role of women. In her article she writes that she is a man that wants to go to school and be supported financially.

A related issue for research students writing a thesis is whether to use “I” or “we”, especially when the material has previously appeared in a co-authored paper. In general, I prefer students to use “I” when they mean the author, as it is their thesis. (The royal “we” should only be used by monarchs.)
