Hello. Well, first of all I really enjoy this book we're reading. However, probably because Stephanie Coontz is a woman, the book does tend to focus mostly on women's issues. It very evedent. I even noticed it while reading; before the question was brought up in class. I also believe that much of what I've read is good. However, interestingly, this is one topic that noone in this entire world could write about without out being biased in some way, whether they realize it or not. Everyone has a different view on life and even an open-minded person who researches a lot of things still can't possibly get everything right; there are too many angles that need viewed. I have enjoyed the sitcoms we have watched. My own personal opinion is that they are a great way to escape reality, which we all need to do sometimes. However, it is so easy to want to believe it could be real just because it's so nice. From there, it becomes easy to forget that it isn't real and that's where people can get into trouble. Well, that's my take on it. Have a great weekend everyone!
