My social issue was about masculinity in women and how shaming girls who have muscles happens often because, "thats not what girls or women should look like." In the essay we assigned, I wrote why female masculinity is as bad as plus size or thin shaming and what this stigma is doing to women. My thesis was,
"Female strength and muscles should not be looked at as flaws because it causes self esteem problems, unrealistic ideals in the media, and fitness is looked at as a shamed obsession."
