After talking about femininity
I found that one of the largest health problems for men is that masculinity is
never compared to femininity, femininity is only compared to masculinity. This
makes it difficult for men to move beyond the ideas that have been made for
them.
In our most recent class
meeting it was very interesting to discuss women in class today. Early in the semester
our professor mentioned how women are not as bothered about discussing stereotypes
because women are always talked about, and analyzed. I found today in the
discussion it difficult to carry on a conversation. All of the women in the
classroom have heard all the arguments beforehand, and we have discussed
solutions and plans with friends to violence against femininity. There didn’t
seem to be a lot of new ideas to be discussed because everyone in the classroom
wants more. I have always said that playing devils advocate is the most
exciting place to play because it always livens up the conversation, and I
think when we talk about women again I am going to play the role in order to
create more controversy.
