WHAT IS SOCIOLOGY? LECTURE 7 이진혁 (Lee-jinhyeok)
Today I am going to post two topic. First topic is "color pink is associated whith girls, why". Second topic is "Can we think of other ways the society tells us how different things are expected from boys and girl?". Both topics are related to gender.
Color pink is associated with girls, why?
Toys for girls that Barbie is doll for girls are pink. And the majority of girl`s room wallpaper is pink. In addition, Stuffs that is related with girls are almost pink. So I think that pink is associated with girls because from an early age, they have grown around the pink color. On the other hand, boy`s color is blue. Toys for boys are blue. And boy`s room wallpaper is blue. If some boys love pink, his friends will consider strangely and vice versa.
Can we think of other ways the society tells us how different things are expected from boys and girl?
thinking of boy and girl is very different. So in everyday life, lover or friend has many conflicts because of minor words. The difference between the men and women of thought appeared in stereotypes. Boys should do not cry. They are expected to brave, energetic and dignified. Girls are expected to pure, week and submissive. But these are standards that set by people from the past until today. this is a kind of gender discrimination. When I was high school student, while study, I read some contents that is related with this topic in the English fingerprint. Boy`s parents think child`s success thanks to the ability of the child. On the other hand, girl`s parents think child`s success thanks to the effort of the child.
