Essay / A Man's View on Women - 1351
When Tinie Tempah, an English rapper, said: "At the end of the day, I'm a human being and I just think that's what It is. Fighting stereotypes by just being who I am,” he knew that ultimately society cannot define who he is as a person. Tempah has lived with the challenges of being an English African rapper facing discrimination from society. Society destroyed his dream of becoming a rapper by stereotyping his English accent. Tempah can relate to female stereotypes because he knows the emotions one goes through when being labeled. In American society today, femininity has been expressed in various ways through the media – in Lil Wayne's “Love Me” music video – and lately, the ideal woman is portrayed as sexually submissive, weak and dependent men, which leads women to believe it's a thing. what strong, rich and powerful men really want, which makes women less confident and not striving for something better. The media tends to have a very narrow definition of women, stereotyping that they exist solely for the sexual pleasure of men, making them appear submissive, weak and dependent on men. A woman is called “weak” when she does not know her worth in the world and allows men to use her body without offering her a committed relationship. A man thinks that the ideal image of a woman is one who is "submissive", that is, a woman he can simply roam around without having to take into account her feelings and wishes. A “dependent” woman is a woman who depends on the support of someone else. It is considered that they do not have the will to succeed and achieve their own goals, which men feed off of. These women fall into the perfect category for men because they want women who will do anything to be in the middle of paper... ties that women can deliver. Society should respect women and be more informed about why women turn to abuse and view themselves as worthless in the world. These stereotypes about women are dangerous and lead to women harming themselves because men do not value them. Women are victims of abusive relationships and live under a stereotype that was created for them. Women give birth to men and for a man to disrespect a woman is disappointing. All men should view the women they exploit as their mother or sister, because I'm sure they wouldn't want someone they love to be labeled as weak or dependent on a man. Men should get more involved by asking women what they think about certain situations. Today's rappers should represent women in a positive way in society so that young boys learn to appreciate women. The media has a great influence on how society perceives stereotypes.
