This article was actually inspired by a Twitter follower called MixMasterMollz & lecturer and author Jacksontkatz.

now, this question can be expanded for years and years, talking about a lot of different subjects and topics but scratching the surface I will try mention as much as I can with detail without blabbing on.

So, does society effect you? In my opinion. Yes. Your background, race, culture, and country will effect you growing up and effect you in the man/woman you become. Why? Simple. Modern society has changed in many ways. For women, the whole planet idolises skinny, pretty girls with big boobs and bums. So if you aren’t a woman who is of that discription, they will be left feeling insecure, wanting to become the women they see on television and magazines, the constant struggle of being reminded by society that you are not ‘perfect’ in other people’s eyes.

For men, society from an early age create an image of women being considered objects, giving young boys the impression they are simply just objects. Growing up into teens, young adults will always have to compete with other boys, society making an image that men always have to be ‘tough’, and look after himself. And have you noticed that the body size issue is not an issue with men? Women get ridiculed for their size, their appearance but do men get the same treatment?

One thing linking men and women together, is the fact of ‘fair and same treatment’. Men can go out in this world sleeping with many women, and they can openly blag and brag about themselves to other men (which women will see, social media is an amazing thing) and what do these men say back to them? They are ‘legends’and ‘players’. But when a woman does the same thing, they are called ‘sluts’ and ‘slags’. These insults are called by men and even women themselves. What’s the difference? That a man has a penis?… Society has placed upon us an image that women should be loyal, faithful and should not sleep around, but why hasn’t society created this image for men? I shall leave that question open for you readers to answer.

Another thing is blame. The man I mentioned within the first paragraph has a YouTube Video where he states miley Cyrus could be considered as a bad role model, and many people blame her for her sexualised videos and live performances, but she’s in her 20’s. She’s a young woman. Whereas Robyn Thicke, who is in his late 30’s, has a very explicit song, with half naked woman who he treats and refers to as sexual objects.

Why isn’t he to blame? Why isn’t he classed as a bad role model. In fact, quite the opposite that song was very popular at the time of its release, with hardly no mention of him being a bad role model for men, yet miley is slated for not being a suitable role model for women.

He also stated, Robyn Thicke did a live performance of which, Miley Cyrus was ‘twerking’ and sexually touching him.

Of which, many people absolutely ridiculed Miley Cyrus for. My question is, why wasn’t Robyn Thicke ever ridiculed? He’s an older man, a lot older then miley. He should morally know right and wrong, but people was to focused on mileys appalling performance they forgot to question Robyn’s actions.

Society has really created an image in our heads that a woman should always be judged on her actions, but never a man.

Infact to support this theory, I’ll bring up a drink ban in magaluf what happened months ago over an article and story about a girl who was embarrassed and felt ashamed since she got to drunk and men around her made her do a drinking game of some sort. This included her being fully naked. Now, the woman was drunk, of course maybe her fault but men took advantage of her making her do drinking games and getting naked, which she did say she didn’t want to do. So what was people’s outcomes?… What did society and many members of the UK say?

They Stated that the girl was an attention seeker and yet again, a slut. Not many people mentioned the fact that the men are to blame. Who made her do something she didn’t want to do, nope, that she was just a ‘slut’ for being naked in a public place.

So do you think society effects your mentality? If you agree or disagree with this article please let me know! Tweet me @0pini0nZ0ne
