I came across this video while scrolling my Facebook
timeline and it really reminded me of this class. Americans always hear about
how women are put under tremendous pressure to look a certain way in order to
attract a mate, get married, or have any worth at all. Women must be thin, fit,
have big boobs, a flat stomach, and a big butt. Girls all over the world are
killing themselves to fit a certain standard. However, no one ever really talks
about how men face similar pressures, especially these days. It’s comforting to
me that people are finally starting to acknowledge that men have just as many
pressures to live up to in order to fit in as women do. And the sooner we acknowledge
how we treat men in our society, the sooner we can address how men act in
society and how it influences women. No one realizes that we are in cycle and
need to address men’s issues as well as women’s in order to find peace in this
realm. Click the link to go straight to the video.
