Killing Us Softly & A Call to Men

    "Killing Us Softly," is a documentary of a female speaker speaking about how woman have to look to be accepted in society. On advertisement, you have females looking better than what they naturally are. They would have no scars or blemishes. Society always make you realize as a female how important it is to be pretty. You cant just look any way without being judged or accepted. Also, it talks about how females bodies are used to sell things and makes it as though we are just objects. Its as though women arent really looked at for who they are and just being judge by society. To me, this documentary shows and make you realize how woman have to try to fit in with society. One minute your boobs are to big, small, pointy, saggy, or look like mosquito bites. Youcant win for loosing. Women need to be looked at as human beings and for how they are made because we are all created by the same person. GOD.

     In the next documentary, "ACall to Men", its a male speaking on how men are suppose to be according to society and how woman are suppose to be. In society, men are suppose to be tough, strong, dominating, courageous, and be the leader. They are suppose to have the upper hand to females. The speaker spoke about a lot of true things on how society tries to form a man. If you cried as a little boy, chances were you would get yelled at and/or for crying and would be told crying is for girls. You can pretty much say men are suppose to be superordinate and women are suppose to be subordinate.  The speaker realizes how he tried to shape his son they way society tries to shape most boys, but in the end realized that it wasnt a good thing and that its just the way men are "suppose" to be. To me, a lot of guys who think they are to tough to cry or have a woman have the say, should view this documentary and realized they are just going according to society and should try to change it in some way.
