Enough is Never Enough

This week in sociology we mostly talked about violence, and what america describes as the overall "Male Figure" I never realized how impacted we are by such an early age that we automatically are told that males are supposed to be strong or what some boys called "jacked", big, tall, confident, independent, and never show fear. This is why boys are commuting violent acts, because look what they have to look up too! It is ridiculous that if boys show fear, or even show emotion at some part in their life, they are not the normal male figure. We need to start treating everyone equal. Those boys out there that are afraid to show emotion, or even afraid to cry shouldn't be afraid! Girls cry all the time, so why can't boys? Their shouldn't be this fence between boys and girls anymore! Boys have the right to like the color pink just as much as girls are. They shouldn't be worried so much on the fact that they need to be working out everyday to get as big as they can get. We have bigger problems in this world that we should be worrying about rather then worrying about our weight. Both boys and girls are severely impacted because at such a young age we are automatically told what makes up girls and what makes up boys. I know when I have kids some day, I am going to be more cautious of what I say to them, and more cautious of what I am showing them to use as there role models. Maybe Barbie or cinderella may not be so hott anymore!
