3) Do you agree that the dominant form of masculinity and femininity is changing, that we
are developing femininities and masculinities? What have you experienced to indicate
that this is correct or incorrect?
I do agree, I think masculinity and femininity has changed and will continue to do
so. Back in the day women would only wear dresses it was manly to wear pants but now
it very common for women to wear pants for example jeans its perfectly normal now. In
the male aspect the man bun, it used to be seen as a female thing and now guys are
allowed to do it not just that but it makes them look manly. Not just in physical aspects
but back then it was a womens job to take care of the baby and change their diapers and
all that but now they also have diaper changing beds in men restrooms as well.
How about the authors statement that homophobia will decrease?
I think it is decreasing I think homosexuality is being viewed as a more common
thing and more acceptable they are having more rights for example being able to marry
there for I think people are getting used to it and dont fear it as much because back then
it was rare or a sin or viewed as a bad thing.
Personal Reflection: This class helped understand the behavior in human and look
and society in different ways, it helped me understand why we do the things we do and
follow the norms. In my everyday life I now observe for folkways that others have or that
I have myself. I found this class very interesting and have learned a lot of things that have
been beneficial in my life. I enjoyed learning about different theorist and theories I could
agree with a lot of them at the same time disagree but overall enjoyed learning more and
more about sociology.
