Post 26: Comparison of views on today's female roles

The views on today's roles concerning gender, especially the female, are varied. My classmates have similar views, such as Michael Brinkley and Ariel Waller, who both think that the former roles have been changed and offer choices regarding roles within the modern family dynamic. Michael wrote that the "women in todays society are now capable of of bringing home the bacon." He also believes that the roles are now in some cases being reversed, with men electing to stay home and assume the role of homemaker. Ariel wrote about the roles being equal in today's world, and also contended that it allows us to feel free to attain college degrees and start our own businesses.
In contrast Mr. Howard thinks that the modern roles females assume has been somewhat negative. He wrote that with womens liberation the "value of a man began to decrease". Imani on the other hand views the female empowerment as a positive. She wrote that "women want to do more than just stay at home". These opinions, though contrasting, shows how the insights of the male and female view may differ in regard to the changing roles of gender within our society.
