Southern Comfort

SO-199-01 Southern Comfort How did the movie make me feel? It was a warm feeling. The first ten minutes of the video showed this close knit family take outside and that alone I admired. And I when I found out that his connection to his chosen family was so strong to tot to his aid when he woke up in a pool of his own origin I began to admire the family even more. I assumed that that the life of a transgender person was hard. That was a given(p) because it is human nature to fear or to hate what people do not understand. But I general broad scope of how hard it was. I never thought a trans-person could be denied divine service from a doctor.The film challenged me to really deliberate about the social constructs that society built around the verge man and woman. I still find it hard to see differently because I feel it is engrained into me to mobilise otherwise. And honestly, the more think about it the more frustrating it is because each day I discover discriminating things li ke blue blankets and pink blankets for newborn boys and girls respectively that I never thought about. Which cause me to think ask a friend what exactly is a woman and man? A friend, replies with woman atomic number 18 capable of having children and then I responded by saying females can produce offspring.Manny and I couldnt come to a clear a definition for the term woman or man. I wish how Robert stated it not between your legs that define you, but how you feel in your head and heart. I notice that Roberts son mixed his pronouns when he was talking about him. I also had trouble with property the pronouns correct, not during the movie but writing my reflection. I liked the movie overall because I guess the message was to let people know that it is up to us, as individuals, to be more open to the appraisal that our bodies do not label us as men or women. Our thoughts and our feelings do that.
