Today in class, we disscussed about how women are gendered differently then men throughout the media, how their masculinity changes, and after talking about it, it ade me think about the situation with Sandra Bullock and her husband Jesse James. I watched and listened to so many interviews about this and its so devistating. But after hearing the terrible news about Sandra Bullock's husband having an affair with another women while she was filming a movie is very upseting. I dont understand how any man or women could have cheat on someone that they love. Especially if they are married. While reading several articles about Sandra and what she believes is best for her and her daughter is to get James out of their lives. I believe she has the right to step up and file for divorce and get custody of her daughter. I think that not only in the long wrong is this better for Sandra so she can continue her acting career as a single happy mom. In one article that I read about her filing divorce, there was dialogue between her and an interviewer about what she would have done if she would have caught him sooner and Sandra said "if she could se would have beat James to death with a baseball bat. An would have done more damage then Tiger's wife had done". This shows a great deal of when a man's masculinity is questioned because he knows what he's done is wrong and to make him feel as low life as Sandra did with James she's in full control now with all the power. I totally agree with Sandra's point of view and I do hope she wins and gets custody of her daughter.
