Killing us softly was about the different ways women are exposed in society. Through out the years it has not changed much how a women is seen. Advertisements are the main victim to blame for the way women are portrayed. For years women have been shown as objects, sex tool, animals, and anything that makes them seem like there less of a human not superior to men. The advertisements shown in this video are everywhere an always have a double meaning or some kind of hidden message. This video also talks about how advertisements show what the ideal attractive women should look like and how for years some many women try to be that. According to this video when it comes to women for almost anything looks come first.
    
    A call to men spoke about the morals of an average man in todays society. How men must be tough and strong to never show there emotions. Also how men are suppose be superior to women and fearless. Porter spoke about how we have to teach our sons that its ok to express  our emotions and that women are equal to us. That having power is not everything an women are to be respected as we want to be. We shouldn't  think that if we are called a girl that its the end of the world. Women should not be seen as such  weak. Porter mentions the idea of the man box and how a real man should not be tied to these boundaries and not let it affect the way a man acts and lives in his everyday life.

     These to videos relate to the chapter on socialization because it talks about how men and women are affected by the basic norms in todays society. How men and women are seen as to different things and culture creates this way of seeing men and women through different advertisements. Also the different morals we are taught as children and even when we are older can affect how we think and are seen. The chapters talk about how we are viewed differently based on race, sex and culture and these to video's are a perfect example on how that takes affect.
