I pick this video because it shows that parents always give boys and girls different toys based on gender. It seems like a common sense that girls like pink dolly while boys prefer to robots, but is it just a stereotype? Should parents let children to choose the toys freely before they are given certain toys that parents subconciously think they would like?
I think people should treat both girls and boys equally. Girls don't have to be pretty and boys be strong.]]> 2018-07-18 14:06:21 UTC https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/270522725 kbeers98 https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/270542424 https://youtu.be/381belOZreA
I chose to post this video because it shows the gender-related pressures that we put on children, but in a new light. This video is actually humorous because it is outrageous that adults would experience these kinds of pressures. In following these societal norms, we are not allowing children to be/become who they want to be. Age is like sexual gender and we don't have much control of either of those aspects so is it right that they be pressured to think one way or the other?

I decided to post this video because it sparked some great discussion between my peers and I. In this video we see NBA player Gordon Hayward having a gender reveal with him and his 2 daughters. When he sees that they are expecting another girl, it is very easy to see how unhappy he is because of it. Does he have a right to be unhappy? Is it fair for a father to wish for a boy instead of a girl, or should he be equally as happy with whatever gender is revealed. This could be seen as a product of gender favoritism in our society.

Some of the things we accept as societal norms may just be gender roles thrown in our faces. This video shows gender role commercials geared towards men and women. Some are obviously displaying gender role, but others are portrayed as normal. Some commercials try to lighten the topic of gender role by throwing a woman or man into the scene. For example, the commercial for men show how unmanly one guy is for picking a lighter beer and they use women in the commercial that don't speak and only nod their heads. The women have no voice in the commercial and the other men pick on one guy for being different. They all agree he was not acting like a man. How many of us watch commercials and never realize it is using gender role? I am guilty of watching commercials and not noticing the gender role being used, but I do notice who it is made for. It is a big eye opener and I love how the video was made to spread awareness of secret gender roles in commercials.]]> 2018-07-19 01:47:28 UTC https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/270572561 gustavoavena https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/270583086 I chose this video because it covers how children from around the world see gender and the ideals behind them. This video was really interesting to me because these children are going to pave the way for the next generation to come. There were a few kids that agreed their gender did not limit them to what they are capable of doing. But in many cultures around the world, it appears that men and women still have very separate roles in their society, and these kids take notice of those differences. What really got to me was how burdened and distraught some of these kids were because they feel that their gender prevents them from doing things they've always wanted to do but aren't allowed. ]]> 2018-07-19 03:34:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/270583086 taarnold1 https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/270583782 https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=dove+girls+self+esteem+commercial
I chose this commercial because it has the very important message of how even the most innocent sounding of a statement such as "You throw like a girl" can be very destructive to how young girls see themselves. From a young age society's views start planting seeds in young kids brains that can have positive or negative affects on their character or how they see themselves. Dove, the soap company, hits the emotional chord of grown women because we wouldn't want someone at such a young age deal with the discrimination women struggle with. It also sheds light to how messed up society's views are and how we need to be sensitive and aware the impact we have on the youth. ]]> 2018-07-19 03:45:11 UTC https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/270583782 klairification https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/371220990 I picked this video because I thought it was both an interesting social experiment, and a good experience for the children involved in the video. Almost all of the children drew firefighters, surgeons, and fighter pilots as exclusively male, and when the women with those jobs walked in, the first response was a child guessing that they were just playing dress-up. To me, that says that not only do they not think of those careers as being done by women, even when confronted with proof, they seem to think that women CAN'T do those jobs. That is why I think representation is important in media, ideally it would be showing all jobs done by both genders, and having no 'typically male' or 'typically female' jobs. ]]> 2019-07-15 20:02:17 UTC https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/371220990 jahumada https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/371231911 I chose this video because i found it very interesting how kids around the world view gender roles. Throughout the video different kids around the world describe how they would be if they were a girl or a boy. Avery Jackson's response to this question stood out to me the most, she responded " that before she transitioned she would have to pretend to be a boy" this goes to show that gender roles are typically implemented as such a young age. Kids are taught that in order to be considered a boy or a girl they must look and act a certain way that is acceptable to society. ]]> 2019-07-15 23:18:28 UTC https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/371231911 njgordon1 https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/371262404 2019-07-16 03:44:15 UTC https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/371262404 njgordon1 https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/371262405 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtR_0dPhyG0

The link I placed above is a video about women playing football, despite all of the terrible assumptions and anger that people have regarding women and sports. I chose this because I have personal experience with judgement within the athletic field. I was involved in plenty of sports, but there were plenty that my father would not allow me to try because I was a girl and he didn't want me to get hurt. To anyone, yes, it was definitely a way that a father looks out for their child, but to me, that was one of the most offensive things he could have said to me. I loved to try new things, and believed I could do whatever I wanted because i could handle it. Society has made people believe that women are developed in certain areas like men are and we can't do certain things. Yes, physically, men have different advantages, but that says absolutely nothing about the capability of a woman.]]> 2019-07-16 03:44:15 UTC https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/371262405 smayberry6 https://padlet.com/bgaspar1/92qtox4evej1/wish/371276124 I chose this video because I thought it was an interesting experiment. The babies were changed into clothing of the opposite sex without the adult who interacted with them knowing. Based off of the clothing the adults chose toys that they thought "matched" the child. The boy enjoyed playing with a pink doll and the girl enjoyed the "boy" toys. In the end the study reveals that the children are more receptive to the adults choices than based off of their gender.

I chose this video because it gives a great insight to the possible threats that giving your child a gender specific toy, like a blue transformer for a boy and a pink pony for a girl. It can hinder a child's life prospects.
