Gay Media
This week we talked about gender identy. I never knew there were so many gender catagories. Gender has had a major impact on the media. In the pass decade stars have started to flaunt there sexuality more and more. In the 80s it was Elton john in his flamboyant costumes, in the 90s it was cheer, and these days its LadyGaga. This has always been a nation where sex sells. I think the biggest gender bender has always been Marilyn Manson, he just scared me. Some people think this is wrong and its wrong to be gay. I think the whole gay thing, its way over rated in the world and in media. But I do think in a world that is highly sexual, we are consonitally seaking out sex driven stars. Sexuality is a main things that drives our entertainment industry. Everywhere we look we see imagies of sex. These images can have a negative impact on our child!

Good job identifying some gender bending celebrities over the years. You transition very quickly between observations of gender bending to observations about sexualized media, and I'm not sure how you see these two topics as being connected. I'd also like to see you develop your last point about children a little more.
