Initial reaction to gender and conflict

I found that after the discussion this past Thursday that there are a lot of opinions and views that will feed this class. The poster activity was a great way to break the class in and start a discussion. I thought the female posters were very interestingly arranged, as well as similar. Since the males are outnumbered, we only had one poster. I think it would have been a lot more interesting to have two separate groups to bring our ideas together such as the females did. I found it interesting that our ideas of the perfect man suited, but did not match up with the females' ideas of a perfect man.
I look forward to talking about many things in this class, such as stereotypes, gender roles, as well as get into some heated arguments along the way. It will be interesting to see others perspectives on the same issues from a gender perspective rather than a general perspective.
