The quote shows that women/girls are seen in a negative way because they usually are supposed to imagine things and act ignorant. This introduces the idea that women are annoying to society and looked down upon.]]> 2020-09-04 02:59:45 UTC https://padlet.com/s24600605/xcv20y6gs67we3ni/wish/720036919 s24600605 https://padlet.com/s24600605/xcv20y6gs67we3ni/wish/720039759 In Chapter 11, Jem tells Scout: "Don't pay any attention to her, just hold your head high and be a gentlemen" (LEE 117). In this quote, Jem is basically telling Scout to be more of a man because women were viewed as frail and weak during this time. It proves teaches us that men were tougher than women, or at least seen that way.]]> 2020-09-04 03:01:40 UTC https://padlet.com/s24600605/xcv20y6gs67we3ni/wish/720039759 s24600605 https://padlet.com/s24600605/xcv20y6gs67we3ni/wish/720104654 1.Gender Roles TED Talk
The girl in the video explains how in today'd society, women are seen as clean, loving, and nurturing, and men are seen as intelligent, tough, and strong. She describes that men and women have stereotypes that control how society sees them.]]> 2020-09-04 03:45:10 UTC https://padlet.com/s24600605/xcv20y6gs67we3ni/wish/720104654 s24600605 https://padlet.com/s24600605/xcv20y6gs67we3ni/wish/721874097 At the end of the book, Atticus teaches Scout about jury: "For one thing, Miss Maudie can't serve on the jury because she's a woman" (LEE 252). The quote shrewdly describes that women didn't have the same jobs as men, and they were supposed to clean and cook rather than work on a jury. This tells the reader that it was odd for women to work in a serious job that seemed so masculine to society back then. ]]> 2020-09-04 18:55:34 UTC https://padlet.com/s24600605/xcv20y6gs67we3ni/wish/721874097 s24600605 https://padlet.com/s24600605/xcv20y6gs67we3ni/wish/721921762 2.The image below is a perfect representation of how society is accepting that men and women can take different roles. In the past, only women could cook and be nurturing, and only men could work. Today, we are breaking away from these norms so that people don't have to try to fit into a mold and be perfect.]]> 2020-09-04 19:14:36 UTC https://padlet.com/s24600605/xcv20y6gs67we3ni/wish/721921762 s24600605 https://padlet.com/s24600605/xcv20y6gs67we3ni/wish/721929315 3.Stereotypes
The video talks about the facts that men and women are supposed to fit into these molds and be a certain way. Seeing these stereotypes and norms on social media and TV makes people think they need to change. The roles and stereotypes that we are supposed to fit make us think that we aren't good enough, and these things negatively affect today's society.]]> 2020-09-04 19:17:51 UTC https://padlet.com/s24600605/xcv20y6gs67we3ni/wish/721929315
