Amara: I enjoyed looking around your blog and getting to know you from your about me section. I think that Erin Brockovich is a very good choice for the "Real Wild Woman" because of the way she portrays herself to the viewers. She goes around and uses her sexuality to convince men to agree with her and help her get ahead in her job. A part that I do not agree with is where you says that she is nurturing and that is a standard attribute of womanhood. I think that she does not follow the role of nurturing by the way she presents herself more than half of her daily life.
The effect of technology on family has been just as big as capitalism and has changed almost everything in every day life. I feel that your example of families not communicating effectively or distancing themselves from each other is a very real and scary thing that can happen and is happening today. I also agree that social network sites have changed ways to communicate and keep up with people without interacting or ever seeing them.
Hilary: I like how your blog is set up and easy to read and very colorful. I have never seen the movie Heartbreakers so do not know how the women are portrayed but the way you describe them it does seem to fit the article very well. Your quotes fit what you were trying to portray very well and gave a good incite to what you are trying to portray.
I think your article about "Capitalism and Gay Identity" was well written but could have been longer with more ideas. I did like your point about how adopting can solve the issues of not having enough children to fill jobs and keep the economy going because more people are able to express the homosexuality. I think that this is a difficult topic to write about and I feel you went about it very well.
