The sexual assault victims are not only women but also men.

Atticus tells the jury he is sure that they will make the right decision, saying, “Now I am confident that you gentlemen will review without passion the evidence that you have heard, come to a decision, and restore this man to his family.” He is putting additional pressure on them to make a choice based on facts and not on prejudiced ideas about race. In the courts, all men are supposed to be equal. They are the fortress of justice, and must never be corrupt. Innocent people should not be punished, but instead justice ought to be restored to them. Unfortunately, despite Atticus’ logical and emotional appeals, the jury of Maycomb cannot be swayed from their terrible racist views and finds Tom Robinson

He’s like that showing off and sucking up when the tough guys are around.” This quote reveals to the reader that Todd has participated in harassing Marshall just so that he can be liked by the group of boys who were popular and so that he too could become popular. In other words, he conformed into bullying Marshall so that he could have a higher social status and avoid getting picked on himself, as the bullies wouldn’t decide victimise one of their own.

History has repeatedly given men privilege due to their physical advantages; yet it is these same advantages that have developed into “rules” or expectations that all men should conform to in order to prove their manhood. Michael Kimmel’s essay, “‘Bros Before Hos': The Guy Code” outlines the “rules” where men are expected to never show any emotions, be brave, act knowledgeable, be risk takers, be in control, act reliable, and be competitive, otherwise they would be showing weakness which is analogous to women. It is humiliating that men associate weakness with women; they should focus on the potential of the individual rather than their gender. Most insults toward men attack their masculinity because society finds it shameful for men to be

In other words, Munford figures out that it is better for him to take his responsibility by serving his sentences after making offences. Ernest J Gaines’s purpose through Munford’s decision is to restore black’s manhood by showing his awareness, his consciousness about his guiltiness which make him to act accordingly as a virile person. In addition, Gaines strengthen this idea in the same story when the protagonist Proctor gives himself away to the police after stubbing a man that he do not intend to do. Proctor persuades the white policemen that, as a black, he is conscious and virile enough to admit his offence, for example, “You protect yourself, what? T.J. said.

Justin Baldoni’s talk at TEDWomen 2017 “I am done trying to be ‘Man Enough”conveys how men are expected to behave, treat others due to male stereotypes and what he 's doing to be a better person. Baldoni backs up his speech by sharing personal experiences of male stereotypes from his youth, his adulthood, and how he is learning to overcome them. The speaker 's purpose is to show women and men that male cliches are an issue and that action must be done in order to help redefine masculinity. Baldoni’s personal experiences and the emotive language used creates a reliable source and can be used as a valid source unless it is for a topic such as masculinity, equality, and feminism in a college paper. Justin Baldoni first gets his audience 's attention and strikes with emotional experiences from his childhood.

The driving force behind these words and actions was a strong moral code. Both men fought the fights they did due to a wholehearted belief that what they were doing was right, and important. This is especially apparent in Thoreau’s fight, as the institution he spoke out against didn’t even affect him. As a white man in America, slavery did him no harm, and there was no threat that it ever would. However, his moral compass led him to understand that all men were equal, regardless of their skin color, and that the enslavement of another human being was wrong.

Whether it is used in a specifically homophobic way or as a general negative term, the fact that it is being used as an insult shows the underlying negativity to men that are attracted to other men. It supports the long and ongoing

Whilst trying to prove Abigail and the other girls were pretending, John confesses, “I have known her [Abigail], sir” (3.110). The fact that he is willing to confess such a heavy sin for this purpose is a huge deal. He willingly, albeit reluctantly, soils his name and reputation to bring the truth to light. In the end, Proctor refuses to give a false confession that would condemn the others who were falsely accused. He decided what he felt was right and refused to stray from it.
