In Susan Bordo’s “Beauty (Re)discovers the Male Body”, she discusses the idea of men as sex objects, their effect on society, and the stereotypes of male modeling. She discusses some very interesting topics and is not afraid to offend readers while digging into ideas of controversy. As I read her writing, i felt swung to believe the same things she does. Her diction and tone were very compelling. She also did not steamroll through her argument. She mentioned other ideas and counter arguments throughout the writing, then either rebutted them or provided another way of thinking. As a reader this was very powerful and lead me to believe most things she said. This is something I have implemented in my writing and will continue to work on.
