‘The Mask You Live In’ ‘The Mask You Live In’ a movie that gives a clear reflection of the hyper-masculinity society that we live in, which unknowingly affects and hurts the boy child. For a long time, there has been a notion that has been around for generations that hinder a boy or a man from showing his emotions or being sensitive to things. In the society that a male is brought up in always reminds him that he is a man and should never show vulnerability by getting emotional or expressing his feelings. The film shows how men or boys are taught to bottle up their emotion which hurts them I can relate to the scenarios in the movie where Steven tries to make his son into a man by telling him to be strong and not to cry because he is a man and men do not cry. I can relate to this part in the film as it is the same situation I went through with my father as I was growing up. Something that surprised me…
Construction of Subjectivity with Families Introduction Subjectivity refers to the way someone’s judgment influences personal opinions and feelings. The term ‘subjectivity’ is concerned with internal factors as opposed to external factors. The phenomenon does not have a factual approach, hence a form of individuality and bias (Mansfield 51). The behavior of one’s brothers in a family setting, for instance, could influence the way that person views other men or families in society. Construction of Subjectivity with Families The term ‘Construction of Subjectivity’ is used with families because the family is the first social institution (Rey 53). Many studies reveal that a child’s character, concerning feelings and decision-making, is dependent on their family. Such concepts as child adoption of father’s name and mother-tongue are vital in the construction of the subjectivity of a child. The family unit can impact the behavior, beliefs, and values of an individual. Children experience much effect regarding personality because they emulate the older members of the family. Parents and guardians who practice psychological over-control, for instance, may end up having shy and anxious children. Limited opportunities…
Committing a crime Committing a crime brings shame and guilt to the suspect, which is subtle (McTaggart 2012). The feeling of guilt and or shame may have different outcomes on the suspect. One of the results will be taking a flight to seek asylum in a different state or even hiding his/her whereabouts. Guilt makes the suspect regretful, remorseful, and experience tension. These feelings may trigger reparative actions such as apologies, confession, and costs in compensation for the damage created. Shame is the painful feeling directly on the suspect. The suspects will often defend themselves in aggressive forms, such as shifting the blame to others or even denying their actions. The suspects who experience guilt and shame but fail to put a blemish on others, in most cases, are likely to go to jail, unlike their counterparts. Many experts argue that although it all depends on defense mechanisms and experience of their lawyers, actions by suspects to fly or hide their whereabouts after committing a crime is an indication of knowledge and consciousness of guilt. Flying or concealing whereabouts without…

Can Civil Liberties and Homeland Security Achieve Balance? The terrorist events of September 2011 changed the way the U.S. handles security. Public civil rights and national security were affected as a result (Wong & Lovelace, n.d., p2). In efforts to combat terror acts, the Bush administration initiated the covert surveillance program, for example. The program has elicited debate over the years as regards the right to privacy of American citizens. The Bill of Rights is a fundamental component of the American constitution. The national security of the country and its people has to be upheld as well. In its efforts to do so, civil rights must not be infringed. It is, however, essential to note that without national security, civil liberties cannot be fulfilled. The public would not enjoy freedoms that are currently enjoyed if the country was under siege (Holmes, 2001). In this regard, there is a need to strike a balance between civil rights and security measures. Challenges Protecting the public from terrorism involves search and seizure protocols. The Fourth Amendment is clear on search and seizure protocol…
