Men are disturbed not by things, but by the views which they take of them”.

Culture has played an important role in the way men see themselves. Men only respond to a person that gives them negativity. In society men have a lot on their shoulders. Men are expected to be the man of the house and bring home the bacon. If something causes them to not have that accomplishment, then stereotypes will become an important turn in their life. Men do not respond to stereotypes in the same manner as women do. Most men I know would turn a stereotypical conversation into violence. Women are known to just keep the conversation going with more and more name calling.
Taking views of things plays the role of a female. Men are not known to influence a conversation like women are. Women have a purpose in a conversation and that is to be the one to end it. That makes each gender unique in its own way and that in turn constitutes why there are males and females in this world. Males have a role in society and females have a role in society. They do not have the same roles but that is what makes society the way it is. The aspects of flow and stability have come into place to ensure that men have a place and women have a place.
