    placed on us through the media. Growing up we are unconsciously receiving rules and expectations on how we need to act‚ speak‚ and look. Both men and women are told to act and feel a certain way. Jack Katz allowed to see how much men are hindered by these unsaid rules. Watching Jack Katz film‚ Tough Guise‚ taught me so much of what men have to struggle with every day. It made me empathetic to men that have grown in this “Boys don’t cry” society‚ because they are prohibited to freely express themselves

    Watching the Tough Guise video featuring Dr. Jackson Katz was very informative. At one point in the video he discusses how the dominant group of white heterosexual men is not identified as one of the traits of violent people. In the video‚ he states that “one gender‚ men‚ perpetrate approximately 90% of the violence” – something that the media does not feel the need to report‚ as it is overlooked as a basic fact. He compares this to how we in the United States think of race‚ how the word conjures

    After watching Tough Guise I immediately wanted to pick the subject of men and women’s change of image from 50 years ago to todays images. I never really took a good look at male action figures and how they have added an overwhelming amount of muscle to the character. However‚ I do not feel that the change in muscle tone from athletes or super heroes are done just for image sake. There has been man advances in muscle growth and athletes today have an extreme advantage over athletes 50 years ago.

    thinking about class‚ race‚ and gender? The primary way Tough Guise gets us to think about class‚ race‚ and gender is by showing how the media presents them. It was shown that when someone says class it is assumed low class‚ when race is brought up minorities are assumed‚ and gender typically warrants the idea of a female. This shows that everything is presented through the idea of a majority viewing a minority. The most striking way Tough Guise brings up the topic of gender is the lack thereof in reporting

    The film “Tough Guise 2” was very eye opening. I’ve always been aware of the stereotypes men are expected to uphold‚ but Jackson Katz put this into a whole new perspective for me. By showing me videos from years ago to our date today‚ I’ve learned this is a reoccurring problem that isn’t new‚ men have been acting in a violent manner for ages. The overwhelming statistic of crimes created by men are shocking to me. Over ninety percent of men create violent crimes‚ leaving the other ten percent to women

    In the Tedtalk presented by Jackson Katz on violence against women‚ Katz points out that society tends to make the focus on intimate partner violence about the woman. When this happens‚ the problem with gendered violence can easily turn into victim blaming. With the entire focus now primarily on the victim or in a broader perspective—the woman‚ the perpetrator who is more than likely a man has vanished from the equation. In society‚ what this means is that there is a focus on teaching women how to
