now, now, now, now. i'm too tired to even do this.
but what you said about media messages.
i don't think i ever simplified anything to the point that anyone could say i am merely blaming media messages for everything.
they will play with deep cultural messages, we'll respond to that.
is media taking it into a new level? perhaps.
but one thing you must remember when gender roles are portrayed out there in the so-called media: they existed first.
they began as a representation of what society truly believes and its current guidelines. very complex to be discussed now. im sure glice or someone can write something about it no one can decipher (this is an invitation, by the way).
