DATING And How Did We Get Here (part 4)

                 *Warning: THE SYNDICATE DOES NOT EXIST*


Propaganda: information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view.


What if you didn't know that you have been given propaganda every day of your life and never realized it? It might have started small with fairy tales and cartoons. Even the fairy tales were chosen to fit a society moral such as THE BOY WHO CRIED WOLF. To a young boy's mind, he was told to never lie, because a real monster will come and no one will believe you. Every fairy tale for young girls ends with the words "Happily Ever After", let's analyze those words. The message girls will learn is to never worry about anything and all their problems can be solved with one man who does whatever. It implies there's no work in a relationship and a girl's life will be happy at all times.

As adults, we know it is physically and emotionally impossible to be happy at all times. Lying is wrong and that's a character flaw. However, it's also a character flaw if an adult grows up with a sociopathic need to be happy at all times. 

In same sex couples, propaganda in dating is impossible because to people of the same gender know exactly what life is like being like themselves. Yet, in straight couples, expectations to fit inside a template made by 1950's dating culture arise. The host wants to be appreciated for their efforts and a guest simply shows up and eats and talks....let's say this is the same with a dog owner and a dog. The dog, however, has never been given propaganda and the animal is intelligent enough to show appreciation. Of course, I'm not saying an entire gender are like dogs, because that would be unfair and sexist.
