1) What was the one assignment that was fun to do and why?
I found the first paper (the advertisement paper) very interesting brcause I myself learned new things while searching for the advertisements.
2) What was the one assignment that made you learn something about something? What was that "something" you learned?
While doing the advertisement paper I learned about the hegemonic masculinity and what it is. where it started and other types such as the metrosexual tyoe.
3) What was the one assignment that you did not care for? why?
The assignment I didnt like was the 2nd research becausce I was struggling with finding the sources that would be help with the reading from class that i chose. I changed the reading used as a source 3 times.
4) Do you think, overall, Blogger was a useful tool for this class? In what ways?
Yes!, I think blogger was a very useful tool for the class. In ways that you could see others classmates paper comments to what they think about your paper help you build your paper and make improvements.
5.) Describe one kind of assignment or task that we did NOT do that you either did on your own (say, customizing your blog, adding gadgets), OR an assignment you would have liked to have done, or a TYPE of assignment you would have liked to have done more of?
The adertisement paper and the research paper 1 were interesting and actually fun to do. I would have liked some sort of paper simailar to those two as the research paper 2.

Final Draft Research Paper 2
Men have the most advantages in female professions which is slowly destroying the stereotypes of men in female professions.Studies from the web source have shown that wage discrimination favors males.Blog shows how men are succeeding in the nursing profession and historic events that led nursing to the profession it is today. The reading “hidden advantages” by Christine L Williams gives points on the advantages men have in female professions. Its about how men have the advantages women don’t even in traditionally female jobs.
From the very start women were only seen nurses, later seen as a female profession. As mentioned in the “Male Nurse” blog, only women were seen as “natural caregivers from birth”. Even before nursing was considered a career, men was already involved in the care giving role. “The first school of nursing, founded around 250 B.C. in India only accepted men” is written in the blog. So before the care giving role was a profession men were already involved since they were the first ones who were taught in nursing schools. The role of being a care giving nurse was actually first thought to be only to for men to do. Giving the privileges that men have always had, only men were thought to be “pure enough to touch patients, women were not”. Shows how women were in a disadvantage point since the beginning. Past historic event show how men have been succeeding in the nursing job. “Christian brotherhood of the early church” practice nursing. In the military since men were the ones in battlefields they were the ones to take care if the wounded. This however is still in effect today, shown in the blog that “Across the army, Navy and the air force, men are approximately 30-40% of the nursing population”. Men are growing into the nursing career and becoming more involved. What is to say about the years to come with the population of men in nursing increasing.
Studies show that both men and women suffer from gender discrimination when hiring. There are always new advantages for men to progress in the female professions. Leanne E. Atwater writes in the web publication “as women enter the work force and predominate in certain jobs, we could expect new ceiling to emerge for males”. Meaning the more women succeeded in jobs more advantages for men shall be created as an outcome. Those are the bias that is used against women privileging men. Men that go for management in female jobs have more privileges than women even its a traditionally female job. This fast is shown in the publication “Males will be allocated higher salaries than females when they are selected as the choice applicant for a top-level management position in a traditionally female jobs”.In the publication two studies show “that males were likely to be offered higher initial salaries than comparably qualified females”.Men have the privilege of being paid more even if females have the same qualification. Men receiving more money affect their masculinity “money is masculinity”
Advantages is what men have over in women even in women occupied jobs. In the reading “The Glass Escalator” by Christine L. Williams it says “men were told by recruiters there were special advancement opportunities for men in these fields, and they entered them expecting rapid promotion to administrative positions”. Right off the back before even getting the job men knew there advantages they had. Being seen in a female gendered job is bad for their image so they receive special privileges for just being a man. Librarian is considered a female profession but a interview shown in the reading says “would hire a male over a female”(Williams 213). So more men would go for job in the library because they know that they have a better chance of being hired than a woman would, given its a female job. Better chance of men being hired will also increase the popularity of men working as librarians. Having more men as librarians will cause the stereotypes about men as librarians to fade away. These advantages men have is so they can move forward, getting into a higher positions. This way stereotyping wouldn't be considered because the men in the female professions exceed into a greater job than just the ordinary job women can achieve.
Studies show wages and hiring conflicts in gendered typed professions favor men.Historic events have done the same in favoring men. Men competing in female professions may be affect their masculine image but with the advantages and privileges they receive, they are sure to progress well in women occupied jobs.Men being more involved in female jobs will ultiumitly lead to the fading of the stereotypes that affect men’s masculinity when seen in female professions.
