This might be familiar to you all. In society, the men are portrayed by the media as the ringleaders. They are the breadwinners for their families and are expected to maintain their jobs and status. Why is such a stress placed on them? If a man were to lose his job, do you know what he would think or say?
Why should they feel that way? Women aren't allowed to take full advantage of the rights given to them while a man isn't allowed to express his emotions. Growing up, all boys are told that crying is not a manly thing to do, that they should be cool, calm, and collected instead of getting emotional because it is seen as something only a woman does and is now considered 'gay' (Stop the Waterworks Please! This is NOT a water fountain!). Why should they be constrained by the idea that men HAVE to earn everything for the family? Why should showing emotions be considered as something that will bring down their 'manliness'? Don't they know that crying is good for you as a means of relieving stress? That's all I have to say! Why don't you male bloggers fight for your right to express emotion?
I totally agree with you about the male in the family being responsible for having a job and providing their family with money and food.
ReplyDeleteIn addition, when women think of marriage one of the main things is weather the guy has a stable job, can he provide for her?
Why aren’t women the ones that are seen to work with stable jobs and the men “stay at home dads”. The concepts weird for us to think about because we are given different messages from the media.
