The Aggressives

I think the documentary (The Aggressives) that Jennifer showed us on Wednesday was very interesting. As many people, or at least me, might stereotypically think that the butcher woman in a homosexual relationship would want to be a man rather than being a woman. However, the documentary showed us that many of them are actually really comfortable being women and are very satisfied of who they are. One of the girls, Kisha, said in one of the interviews “just call me Kisha.” It hits right into my heart. Do we define a person with his or her gender and sexuality? Does his or her sexual orientation affect who they are? It also makes me think of a question brought up in one of the previous presentations in our discussion about whether it is society that makes these homosexual people choose to stay in the closet or stand out, and why can't they just be who they are and not choose a side. Personally, I do not think it is fair to force those people to choose which category they want to be and judge them depends on it. Some of my friends are homosexual and they are as awesome as my other friends, who they like do not affect how we interact and it should not be for everyone else.
