The author, Cathy Ruse brings facts to the table of this transgender presentation, and points out the problems with the false political rhetoric being taught to these students.]]> 2018-01-18 18:44:56 UTC https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/222565365 dkern001 https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/225296960 "'Every society that survived, survived based on its ability to train its sons to be disposable, " Farrell said. "Disposable in war, disposable in work — on railroads or oil rigs — and therefore indirectly disposable as dads. And in order to get men to be disposable — you couldn't get a man to be willing to sacrifice himself if he got in touch with his feelings — we had to disconnect men from their feelings and therefore who they are."

This article explores the male sexuality and culture from both male and female, and feminist perspectives. I feel that this article attacks men for "being masculine" instead of really recognizing that there is a problem coming from both sides.]]> 2018-01-27 14:57:25 UTC https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/225296960 dkern001 https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/227020674 This is an illustration that I found earlier this week while scrolling through Facebook. It is both funny and disturbing because of what it represents. On the lighter side, it is the ninja turtles being raised by Master Splinter. But the disturbing side is that Playboy helped to bring up the major porn franchises by introducing younger boys to pornographic/sexual content. So what I saw here was me, when I was 11 years old I stumbled onto porn while playing games on "Addictinggames.com" The game I was playing was innocent, but when I lost I went to press "play again" but an advertisement was hidden so that as soon as I clicked it it would send me to the advertisers site, which was porn. Ever since then I have struggled with porn, attempting to distance myself from it. This picture is meant to show Playboy like a "father figure" to the porn industry, but to me it shows a darker truth.

They postulate that in this day and age sexual freedom has changed the game for the worst because it made the default answer to sex "yes" instead of "no" 60 years ago. They also say that 60 years ago it was "assumed" that a woman didn't have to sleep with a man... I personally believe that their assumption is flawed from the start because it is outwardly expected that a woman does NOT have to sleep with a man in this day and age. Also, their assumption that 60 years ago it would be unheard of for a woman to be coerced into saying yes is also wrong... Sadly... I feel as though this article is attacking all of the wrong things. What do you think?]]> 2018-02-09 18:58:17 UTC https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/230163112 dkern001 https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/230649469 (Warning: Minimal Cursing)
"In the first 5 seconds of meeting a guy, be easy!"
The speaker talks about the 99% of guys that do not approach women, and it is funny, yet enlightening.  He states that there is the 1% that will approach every woman, another 1% that will approach every women they like, and the rest of the guys that will avoid difficult situations, waiting for the right moment.  I completely agree with what this guy says "we will wait for the right moment" because men do not want to get rejected 
so we go for women who seem like the least likely to reject us.

I would really like a females perspective on this video because it shows half the picture here.]]> 2018-02-12 15:46:39 UTC https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/230649469 dkern001 https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/232946782 This article goes into great detail about sex in the Bible, and mostly focuses on Paul's letter to the Corinthians. The author relates the Corinthians life style to our own today, in that the people of Corinth believed that celibacy was highest form of sexual purity. But the author points out that Paul was not confirming this belief, but rather confronting such a belief. In the article it states that the highest form of sexual purity is having sex with your wife, not denying oneself his or her sexual needs. This goes against what Puritans, Mormons, and even a lot of what Christians believe.  As Christians do we believe that sex even in the context of marriage should be celebrated? Or do we look at it as only for reproduction?

This article challenges what we are told by the church, and postulates the truth based on biblical accounts about what sex and celibacy truly are.]]> 2018-02-19 15:07:27 UTC https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/232946782 dkern001 https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/237361758 Warning: This video has some cursing.

In this video a panel of speakers at Portland State University talk about the biological gender differences among men and women. Many students leave calling them fascists and nazis for doing so. Do you agree with the students who walked out? why? Do you agree with the speakers? why? What would you have done in this situation?]]> 2018-03-02 12:35:06 UTC https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/237361758 dkern001 https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/240456950 This picture represents something that I am struggling with, and I believe many men are struggling with. I discovered this photo while scrolling through FaceBook and think that it is a great example of how boys and men are taught to suppress their emotions, and be "brave" for doing so, or strong.  
This has become more apparent for me this year because Ashley was hit by a car April 28th 2017. She is suffering from symptoms of PTSD, and is very emotional about certain things that remind her of the event. But, for me I have discovered that I cannot access many emotions because I saw them as the enemy, or as something that would break me. The day Ashley got hit, I kept telling myself, "If I break now, then I cannot help Ashley!" or "Stop! These feelings are worthless for the situation!" But the truth that I have recently discovered is that by suppressing those emotions I have only created a build up, and those emotions can explode out (almost like a self-fulfilling prophesy). I have also learned that the emotions that I feel are almost like dulled senses of what women feel, and I think this is because women have been allowed to express and explore emotions more than men.

This video is about the problem that is occurring in American society regarding Men.

Do you agree with Tucker?  
Do you see any of this happening today?
What problems to you have with what Tucker says? if any?
Should we be comparing men's issues and women issues?]]> 2018-03-19 13:00:26 UTC https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/243455967 dkern001 https://padlet.com/dkern001/zg2xu7cy8lg8/wish/245742286 Warning: Cursing

I know we only have to post one article or video per week... I feel that I have to verify and support my position with more evidence than is presented... I understand this may be a lot to watch and read, but I assure you that it is worth it. I would like to know your comments on this issue.
