Dinner time

    It was a breezy sunny day, Pat Archbold had just woken up and was ready for the day to begin. He started off his day by enjoying a nice cup of coffee while reading comments that were posted over his article, “The Death of Pretty”. As Archbold scrolls through the comments just skimming, he falls upon a link to similar articles. He runs across Lakshmi Chaudry’s article, “Men growing up to be boys”. He decided to truly read the article detail for detail since it caught his attention. Archbold found it so interesting he felt it was necessary to meet Chaudry so he sent her a brief message to meet for some coffee and maybe grab a quick bite to eat. They arrived at a sandwich place called Jason’s deli. Without any hesitation, Archbold jumps right into talking about Chaudry article and how he disagrees with certain aspects of her article but for the most part understands what she said. They talk about how much they believe social media being an important reason for how men and women are portrayed in society. They soon get into a bumpy situation when they both seem to blame the opposite sex as another key reason to why people are being stereotypical, but understand where one another is coming from. They see how the opposite sex could be at fault for holding a certain standing for men to be hardworking and women to be innocent. As they get ready to part off they both share their opinion of what an ideal woman and an ideal man should be and realize that it may not be too bad for men and women to share some roles in life.
