This class and the readings have been so interesting thus far! This chapter was about sex, power and intimacy. The readings gave me insight to my own relationships. It let me see so many differences in between men and women. They way men and women think differently, and have different wants and needs. Not every woman is the same and not every man is the same but many women and many men do have the same sort of wants and needs. I think every individual will truly never be happy until they find themselves and can be comfortable being themselves no matter what the cost. Funny there shouldn’t be a cost at being you. But these days there is. No matter what can of sexuality you are, what kind of sex you like, romance whatever, let that be you! Be comfortable being someone different, if that’s what you think you are. Who is the really the same? No one. And what is normal? I know society has its idea of what is normal, but society is wrong. I think more and more as the years pass and the generations move on, being you and no matter what way that it is, is becoming more acceptable. For years it wasn’t. No matter what role you play we all deep down want the same thing, to give and receive love. So to find the right path for you to do that, you need to figure out what you want and need and be comfortable asking for that.

judging others blog 2
The reading articles for this week were very interesting. It brought out many more opinions in me than the week before. To talk about oppression and homophobes makes you sit back and realize you do have many privileges you take for granted. Really with all this reading it made me see how much society judges everyone in it. You’re judged for not having sex but you’re judged for having sex. Either way you turn someone is judging you. You just need to be strong positive individuals. I wish everyone everywhere thought of peace and happiness but the world doesn’t work like that. But also the individuals that are in hate groups were a strong subject this week also. It’s hard when reading all these articles to not judge the others yourself and have a heated opinion. You can have a heated opinion but when you judge these people you become just as bad as them. It’s hard for me not say judgmental things right now about all these people that I think are horrible for being so cruel to others who you mostly don’t know. Just like the racist individual. The judge on a class or color or etc that they not know the people just the judgment of their class or color. It’s hard with the racist topics because I think a lot of people out there are racist in their own little way but don’t really know it or realize it. I think that is what I have come out of these reading this week and recognizing how I really treat others and to remember I don’t want to be judged so watch the judging myself.
