Tough Guise and Sex in America

Tough Guise starts off by explaining how men are seen in society majority of the time, when men were being asked what a real man is they stated "strong, independent, powerful, physical, intimidating, incontrol, etc... The box was a form that if you uphold that you are outside that box but if your known as wimp, wuss, fag, and sissy you were inside of the box. The video manly states on how mean are seen as tough, and was causes them to be known like this. A couple of examples where men learn it from are their families,community, and mostly media. Media was being used as a powerful tool to show men how they are suppose to be seen as. Latinos, Black, Asian, have their stereotypes on how they are as summed to be seen as of the societies point of view. Men are seen at a higher criminal rate than woman, this would have to common sense for one to know this. Without chaos men wouldn't be so high ranked in the criminal justice system. A woman's point of view showed that when men re around woman they show their true colors but around other men they show a different side thir tough side.Woman also have a fault on why men are always trying o be so tough, because it something that is expected from thm tosh ow to a URL, and if that wasnt the case men woul be different. But to sum this video up That all of this content shows "manly" roles are being played out, in society. My reading didn't really relate towards my article "Sex In America", my article basically discussed how sex is seen in society. Studies shed that Americans that are not married tend to have more sexual patterns than when married. When married partners stay faithful to their partner. It showed that more young people having more sexual intercourse, but yet again all that stops when married(in some cases). But since it's not always that case, it's what led's to divorces, and former partners looking for new partners. In my opinion yeah society can be seen like this but not all of the cases are the same between men and woman.
