The Media and Culture

Boys and girls, males and females, I heard lots of depictions about it. Venus vs Mars, Cats vs Dogs, and lots more. What makes us so different besides the extra Y in the guys genetic. But actually it does differ dramatically from one another. Apart from the genetic part, I would say the main contributor to the situations now are culture and media. We can't escape from the influence of both things I'd mentioned. We always told to do certain things and perform in certain way. When we think it in another perspective, why can't guys wear pink and play with Barbie Dolls and why can't a girl speak loudly in the public and not wearing any skirts their entire life. Who shape our thinking and way of looking at things? Again, the media and our culture. When we think of how your parents tell you that you should sit a certain way because you are a girl.. Television showing how man a guy is when they are bold enough to take revenge for his loved ones.. When advertisement we exposed to tell us pink is for girls and blue is for guys... In other way, we are actually being manipulated by them all this while. We grown up thinking that this is the fact but who determine what is the fact and what is wrong? I learned a lot of this in my course especially Anthropology but yet I can't deny that I can't escape from it although I'm aware. Maybe we are too used to it dy, so it's rather hard for us to actually totally escape from it but to ignore it. That's human, often we don't things that we know. We know there should be fairness first before unity but yet we IGNORE. We know that smoking and drinking is bad for health and yet we can't RESIST the temptations. We know we should not be playing with relationship but we see the divorce rate is skyrocketing.. Haih.. The IGNORANT of human..

Shall be continued soon...
