Gender in society

The role of gender in society has shaped the basis of what most of our culture consists of today. Everyone can illistrate the picture of a traditional household in America that includes a wife who cooks, cleans and takes care of the children to a father who runs the household and works for the family's source of income. Within the past few years, women have made great strides in the battle for social equality, but are having a difficult time of shaking off the domestic character. Women are now common in the work place and even becoming superiors to males. The image of women and their power has drastically evolved over the last half century. Even though women now have a voice in a world run by men, the problem of gender discrimination will never vanish.

What i hope this class will teach me to do is think abstractly and to explores ideas and opinions contrary to mine. I want to see my ideas conflicts with others so i'm able to see an entirely different perspective of the world. I believe creativity is perspective and when different views are seen, this allows for a more creative mindset. In short,i hope this class allows me to think and explore my potential to express my feelings and what the world is to me.
