Gender Ideal

Today in class we talked about celebrities that give of the ideal masculine or feminine person.  For masculine I choose Brad Pitt, Channin Tatum, and Paul Walker.  I chose these actors because they are muscular, have all played the strong badass role where they hold their own in the bad situations they get into.  My person perspective of a man being masculine is a built man who hits the gym regularly, the protector and being handy able to fix many thing.

When it comes to famous women that are perceived as being feminine I choose Carrie Under Wood, princess Di and Michelle Oboma all these women are/were  caring, nurturing, supportive.  I think that culture perceives feminine characteristics to be motherly taking care of others.
