1.The beauty of the past and present is being skinny.Lots of women have a hard time being able to love their body especially when they see a ad or a billboard of a skinny women.Even the women in those ad are being photoshopped because they are considered fat.Nature beauty isn't a thing anymore we tend to use lots of makeup and embrace our body being half naked.

2.A object is something you can throw away like a meaningless paper.Jean says”turning a human being into a thing is almost always the first step toward justifying violence against that person.”,Yes being treated as nothing gets mostly guys to treat women as if they are not human and that is what Jean is trying to explain.

3.Women’s bodies are being depicted as a form of art is very true.Many women love the fame and the feeling of everyone wanting them.Ads try to make it seem like those women are perfect and as well as models,But those women tend to not eat for days just to get that perfect body that everyone desires.Ads are everywhere you go,and seeing a perfect women makes everyone wanted to get their boobies,body, and face done.Or women are being photo shopped to become thinner.That is why a lot og people say “looks can be desiving”

4.Women are more objectified than men because they are a easier targetedgated to menit.If your not the ideal women then your considered ugly.You have to go get your nails done,hair,have makeup,wear fancy clothes etc.Unlike men they can easily wake up in the morning and throw on some clothes without worrying if anybody will judge them.Females always get treated poorly and allways seemed to get treated like the less dominant partner.Also being “light skin” is the beauty of the world if you are darker then you arent as accepted then women who are light.

5.Kilbourne sees nothing wrong with men or women being sexy.Being a women and trying to tbe sexy will get you a label on you.Get people mad for showing too much skin.Women hold the key or reproduction and men don't need to go through the pain of labor and caring for another living being.Many young girls are getting put to model at a young age and forced to eat unhealthy.Eating disorders play a big part in this.The media not only drags women to do the wrong things but as well as men,But girl have the outcome of getting diseases or even getting pregnant at an early age.

6.Katz argument is that the Manhood is violence all over the world.Men tend to have violence against women,gay basing,bullying etc.Men also look at violence as intertainment.They love seeing two men in ring beating eachother up into one men taps out.

7.Three key points that stood out to me is;that if men don't conform them they are considered a pussy or a wimp,90% of the time men perpetrate violence in our society,and that 85% of murders are from men.

8.Tough Guise was a really interesting documentary because no one really talks about how men fight just to fit in.If you don't defend yourself you get beaten into you act right.I do agree with them because we made our society to become they way it is now.We can only make a difference day by day and make sure you teach young boy at an early age that bashing someone isn't okay. Violence should not be as high as it is if we all come together.
