Boys Are the New Girls?

(WARNING:this blog is partially written in slang)

So i had a conversation with one of my friends...and she said that "men are so dramatic...boys are the new girls...they should take off their thongs and put some boxers on..."

This is my comment to her.

"Some dudes express their feelings in different ways...society has painted this vivid picture that is derived from the traditional sense that men are suppose to be "hard", strong, insensitive beings. If we as a people are willing to accept this conventional ideology of the male's persona, we also have to accept the stereotype of the woman - emotional, fragile, naggy, weak. Today, males and females are enhancing their personality traits. We as a people should accept the change! Think about it...all yall girls can easily say that men are acting like females bc we are becomin more emotional and sensitve...we can say yall are actin more masculine bc yall are actin more independent; yall are going to school, getting jobs, and maintaining careers- all in which are traditional traits for men. So i can easily tell you to to 'quit wearin boxers and put a thong on'...lol... but i won't cuz i'm not misogynistic male...lol...i love where we are going as a people. We are adopting each other traits in order to be a more egalitarian society. So I say...lets just accept the change that some males and females have endured..bc change can be good...and if you don't like the change..tough."
