week 7                             What is the impact of fixed/strict ideas about masculinity on: Individuals, society 

# data[].attributes.body
The fixed or strict ideas can impact the masculinity of an individual or in society by making one think they need to change in order to blend in with the rest of the masculinity expectations in society. Societies' expectations of masculinity could make one think that if they are not tough, strong, 'manly', etc, they do not feel as though they can identify as a true man and may think less of themselves or as though they are not good enough.

How is difference treated at school?

At school, difference is viewed as a positive, especially given that Glenunga is an international school.

How have you approached differences?

I have approached differences as both a good and a bad thing. On one hand, I have seen how I am different to others as a bad thing, as in I am not as smart as one of my peers, I do not look like other kids my age, etc. Whereas I see how I am different in a positive way, as in I have a lot of different privileges from others. I have been given the right to an education, I have a home, I have food and water, etc.

How could things be better at school with regard to differences?

There are no things that could be better regarding the difference at school since Glenunga already offers a variety of different clubs, sports and support systems, where in reality we do not have superpowers to magically fix differences, whether they are good or bad.

What can you change personally in how you respond to differences?

I could change how I let others view me when I come into contact with someone who may differ from others. For example, people advertising the big issues do not necessarily look like an everyday person I come into contact with. Instead of walking straight past, I could smile at them or acknowledge the difference they are trying to make in the world. I also need to realise that there is not much I can do to help or change that person's life, but a simple hello could make a big difference to their day.

what could someone do (including where they could seek help) if they were having problems in a relationship?

If someone were having any relationship problems, you could offer them advice depending on the severity of the situation, or if the situation they are in is a lot deeper, you could give them options of resources that could help them either improve or get out of the relationship. These could include contacting various phone lines for more professional advice or potentially the police.

When someone is being assertive, their language may consist of having a polite and open tone and making comments that open up a two-way conversation. Rather than just one person being aggressive and dominant in the conversation.

The impact this could have on a relationship is making one another feel secure and as though they can go to each other about any issues and not having to fear that they will be overlooked or shut down.

What do you think is a person's responsibility to a partner with whom they have a sexual relationship, If they know that they have an STI, or if they are unsure/untested, would this be different depending on what the STI is?

I think a person's responsibility is to tell their partner, since it could have lifelong effects if untreated. I think if they have had symptoms but have not been tested, they should give their partner a heads up, then proceed to go get tested, then tell their partner their results, so then they can proceed to get tested and seek treatment if needed.

Their partner was manipulating them into thinking that if you do not do this then you do not love me and that this is the best way to show we love one another.

who was responsible for ensuring consent?

They were both responsible for ensuring consent, specifically her partner, since he was asking her, she was not asking him.

what could have been said or done to ensure the situation was as comfortable and pleasurable for all?

He needed to not make her feel pressured and needed to make her feel like she had a choice rather than making her feel as though she had to.

1. What are some positive outcomes of challenging discrimination and transphobia for the transgender, gender diverse, and non-binary community?

By addressing discrimination, it can then be identified what society views as different, but more so in a bad way. This would then result in more people being educated on what changes need to be made to make existing conditions less challenging for those types of communities.

2. How can challenging discrimination and transphobia benefit everyone in society?

It can lead to everyone as a society being more educated on what leads to discrimination, so that society as a whole and evolve to make those feel less like outsiders and more comfortable to be themselves.
