Blog Post #11

Sister: I met the perfect man yesterday I'm sure it was love at first sight.
Jonathan(Me): Where did you meet this "perfect" man?
Sister: At the club
Me:The club? Interesting
Sister: Why is that interesting?
Me: I don't think that is a very reliable place to meet someone
Sister: Well he was nice to me
Me: That is because he was probably wasted when he saw you
Sister: Well it is a club
Me: Right so you admit that he had a little to drink?
Sister: Of course everyone did
Me: Well don't be so quick to assume why do you think he had to drink?
Sister: I don't know, why what do you think?
Me: To get some liquid courage, now let me ask you did you get his number?
Sister: No he said he couldn't remember his so I gave mine
Me: Did he call you yet?
Sister: No but I'm sure he will
Me: I wouldn't wait too long if I were you. Why do you think it was love at first sight?
Sister: He was funny, charming and handsome
Me: Those are just all traits by funny he was probably showing off to his friends by charming he was probably trying to please you to get you in bed and by handsome he was probably trying to dress to impress
Sister: Your such a idiot your just jealous
Me: Nope just looking out for you
Sister: So what if he was showing off or trying to dress to impress?
Me: Well why does he feel the need to make himself the center of attention by showing off. What kind of questions did he ask you?
Sister: Well you know boys will be boys or men rather will be men
Me: Right so all boys have to fall into this one category?
Sister: Well no it's just sort of expected
Me: What kind of questions did he ask you?
Sister: My age, where I'm from and stuff.
Me: Doesn't sound like to me like he was interested in a long term relationship
Sister: Well what do you expect for him to ask me about my feelings and if I have children?
Me: Why what would happen if he asked that
Sister: That doesn't sound very manly to me but it is a club realistically speaking no one will ever ask that.
Me: So why did you go there if you weren't looking for a long term relationship?
Sister: Well I don't know just for fun
Me: Well sounds like to me you were his prize and basically his tool he used you and let you go
Sister: What kind of brother are you?
Me: I'm just trying to warn you what most guys in the club are like and what they are looking for
Sister: Oh ok Mr. Big Man
Me: Not at all not all anyone can tell you this so next time when you go to a club don't think you will meet the perfect man because man are not there to meet women but rather use them or maybe the other way around who know you guys use each other? Look it's ok for you to go there to have fun we all need a little fun but that is it just fun don't think too much of the whole experience. Unless of course he calls you
Sister: He will your wrong about him
Me: I hope I am too.

Blog Post #9

The act of fathering does not fall into the simple categories of the over nurturing dad or the overly strict father it can vary from one individual to the other. Factors that can play into a way a father raises his child can include; the culture of the community and economic factors. Males earn better wages than woman even if just by a bit so that automatically sets them for having a higher chance of being the patriarch of the family but what if gender equality was actually reached somewhere in the near future? That would mean that both men and women would have about just the exact same amount of earning wages so there would no patriarchy and no matriarchy so this could lead to a universal way of parenting.Now if kids were to be raised equally by both the mother and the father they would each get the exact amount of nurturing by both of them and there would be no over toppling of the "ideas" of how the kid is to be raised according to males or female standards.

Thesis: Men it seems will always be judged one way or another whether it be going to "female   jobs or moving up in "female" jobs. To be fair it seems you have to be unfair to everyone no matter what. Williams, Christine.  “The Glass Escalator: Hidden Advantages for Men in the “Female” Professions." Men’s Lives. Eds. Michael S. Kimmel and Michael A. Messner. New York: Allyn & Bacon, 2001. 211-224. Print.        This article compares man and women advantages and disadvantages in what is considered "male" and "female" professions. In the article it states that that men in female jobs are pushed up by an invisible glass escalator which are due to their expectations of being in the more "male" positions within their jobs such as administration. While women encounter a glass ceiling in male position jobs.         The author (Christine) took time and put time and effort in conducting her own interviews according to "... the coding techniques described by Strauss (1987). She interviewed 76 men 23 women over the course of 6 years. She also draws from the census and has a good list of References.         My thesis is not very strong and isn't necessarily reflected in the text itself but even though its main focus is on how men are pushed in the glass escalator by invisible forces she states in the end that " Sex segregation is two-way street". In my thesis I state that to be fair you have to be unfair so not only do you have to remove the privileges that men have in "female" professions but also the advantages women have in "male" professions such as being treated too nicely.
