I think the media is making us more unhealthy. The reason for this is because before we had TV kids and family when they were bored would go out side or do something that didn't involve staring at a screen for hours. And now when kids are bored most of them watch TV. Which is very lazy and I think one of the reasons why kids these days are overweight. I also think that the media shows to many fast food commercials. Which is an issue cause on TV they show fast food looking so good when its really really bad for you.And when kids see it on TV they want it and they wine to there parents till they get it.

Over the last couple weeks of class i'v realized that theres alot of stuff about masculinity. I'v learned that the reason young men act the way they do is because there born into it by watchin there family and the media. Also that the view of a masculent man is guys are getting bigger and bigger musciles to show here masculinity. I do think that the relationship between violence and masculinity is somthing to worry about because young kids are starting to think that being a man is about how tough and violent you can be.
