Tough guise

Two weeks ago in sociology we watched a video about how boys and men think they have to be tough in order to be accepted in society. From such a young age boys are introduced to toys and products that are very masculine, because if you were seen with dolls you were considered "girly" or "gay". These stereotype of genders have been going on for many years. If we want to change that it wouldn't happen right away, it would take years to change the overall images what is considered male and female. This all shows just how much media truely effects us as people. If you aren't doing what's advertised you're considered "different". Media shapes us the day we are born and as of now it's almost uncontrollable.
