Austin's PCKCC Blog: Masculinity Video:
Eventually if you see enough violence doesnt that become your first instinct whether male or female?
True the goal of being the best and being masculine doesnt have to be presented in a violent way but how often is it as opposed to another way? The other day I was at school looking out a window and saw what I later learned to be a gang fight on campus outside the library. The men involved were simply trying to over power one another. Shirts were ripped bags strewn across the walk way and security couldnt even break it up. The police had to be called and two of the six or so men were taken away in hand cuffs.   For children who spend their time watching tv and playing video games instead of reading or spending time with their families, the message that violence is a dominant and key thing is very over powering.   A lot of children who are exposed to this type of lifestyle are in the circle of poverty.    Unfortunately the circle of poverty is a key factor in how a child grows up.   Children within the circle are often times not exposed to values of self worth and/or the importance of respect.
