Nature or nurture? The video we watched in class regarding society's take on sexuality roles provoked much food for thought. Before this video, I had formed my own opinions on the subject when reading zines and random online articles. It's a popular subject that I see addressed over and over again, especially by teenagers my own age -- which makes sense, I guess, this supposedly being the time where we come into our own by searching for that "identity." Previously, I did think much of our ways stemmed from mainstream media, inherited behaviors, and the spoonfed ideas of "boys don't cry", etc. Concepts like what defined masculinity and femininity, I felt, had a lot to do with the way we were brought up and the ideas we unconsciously received from those around us while growing up.
