Part 2 of The FlipSide. This video tries break down what men and women consider to be "sexy." It's a wild ride! From the Producers - "What’s sexy to you? We take a look at what men and women define as sexy, only this perspective is turned on its head."

Our Blog's Name

We named our blog, "MyGenderMyBusiness" because we believe that one's gender identity is deeply personal, and should not be determined by what other people want or expect. We're concerned that social media tries to force people into specific gender categories and expects certain behavior from each gender. Through this blog, we hope to encourage individuals to feel comfortable expressing their true gender identity online and in the real world!

What if men were women and women were men? This funny 2-minute video uses humor to break the ice for thought and conversation about engrained gender norms in everyday interactions.

Welcome (our first post!)

Hi! This is the blog of Ayana Whitmal '18 and Kevin Neilson '17. We're looking at how gender is expressed through social media, and why it seems that people feel forced to conform to certain norms on social media. This is a project for Women and Gender Studies 10.
