Final paper

“THE NEW MAN IN DISNEY/PIXAR.”

“Woody achieves the pinnacle of the New Man narrative: armed with a new masculine identity, one that expresses feelings and acknowledges community as a site of power, Woody is able to sacrifice the competition with Buzz for his object of desire.” (Gillam and Wooden 2)

According to this article in our present society men are believed to behave in a certain way such that the society believes that a man behaves in a strong like manner and should not engage in some expressions of example crying in front of people or even expressing their love towards their fellow men, by doing so it’s believed as either the man is abnormal or to behave to be a homosexual. It goes on to talk of two men that is Woody and Gray since the two are believed to be sharing some feelings towards each other and to them it is not wrong. In the real life society all of us, both men and women have very specific rights which should not be denied or violated and everyone is free to express themselves in all ways possible and to whom they wish to express them to.

In this article Gillam and Wooden talk of men in our society and how they fear to express their emotions outwardly since the contemporary society see it to be a weird thing. Because of the norms and traditions which are believed to be true are hindering men’s expression of their emotions, men are believed to be of behaving in a different manner such that when they show love to another person or man is considered to be homosexuality or abnormal. Am motivated to write this article by the way men are viewed in this society because it’s wrong to do so since it’s violating their rights as they too should have the freedom to express themselves. Like women, men too should be positively viewed in all they do, they should be given support so as to feel they are respected and valued in the society. Human beings are very key part of the society and for us to live together in harmony and unity we should live peacefully with respect and care for each other being key in all we do. The purpose of my writing is to sensitize the community to positively impact values and confidence in men so as to increase the cohesion amongst members.

STUDY ON WHAT AFFECTS MEN IN THE SOCIETY.

In the real world there are a lot of challenges that men go through which need to be addressed such as; neglect by the society since all efforts and resources are geared towards bettering the girl child these days, being over powered by women and sexually molested, being left to fend for themselves since people believe men can stand on themselves among many others.

My interest on the topic is on the challenges that men go through and which the society at large neglect and the whole world moves on as if nothing is wrong, yet they should be addressing such. I would to formulate my topic to be specifically be. ”WHAT MEN FACE TODAY.”

I would to thank my audience for being of much help to me by keenly listening to me and making me gain more knowledge and confidence and also enabling me build u more on my language and presentation, I appreciate.
