week 5

This weeks topic is women’s and men’s movements. My eureka moment comes from a movie I caught on TV the other day…the movie is called “Sorority Boys” and it is a comedy. Im going to reference a small part of the movie which involves a women’s study class. Three guys were kicked out of their fraternity called “KOK” ( if u pronounce it out loud you’ll get the jist of what the frat is about) because they were accused of stealing money from their fraternity safe. Well, they ended up dressing up as women and joining a sorority called “DOG” (these women were considered to be the unattractive sorority so I think you can figured out why it was called what it is). One of these guys fell for a girl in this sorority and she happened to be taking a women’s studies class in their college. This guy showed up in this class one day and of course it was filled with ONLY women…the teacher saw him enter the class and made a remark that he must be in the wrong class because this is a class for women, so of course he made a smart comment back about how he wants to get in touch with his femininity or something of the sort. So she allowed him to be in the class. Well, turned out that this guy didn’t want to be in the class to learn about it he just wanted to sit next to the girl and get to know her because this was the only opportunity he had to make friends with her as a man (remember he is dressed as a woman participating in her sorority). So basically he joined women’s studies to get into the pants of a girl. This is exactly what majority of men are about lol. Im sorry to say this but I found this hilarious. This makes me think that maybe if women took classes on men’s movements and men on women’s studies we could all learn a little something about each other. I think this should be a requirement in every college. This would allow men and women to have a better understanding of each other and each other’s needs. I think a lot of our societal issues come from the fact that we don’t understand how the opposite sex feels about certain things, especially about their societal/gender roles. We could all get along a little better and have less hate for the opposite sex if we were given a fair chance to learn about each other. These types of classes are detailed and give a lot of insight on what the sexes think. This could result in a great transformation of our minds.
