Masculinity in an Airport

So I am in the Philly airport waiting. Yup for the last twelve hours.  I see my plane through the window. I want to jump on and go to sleep. Yeah i am at the exhausted no sleep phase of the trip. Brace yourselves. But, man the first plane ride was exciting. I got a window seat :)

it was so fun going up! I also get to people watch while was sitting in the plane, the airport, the food places. I have not see so many different types of people in my life. I like the change. There are white people, tons of asians, indians, people from Pakistan,  African Americans. All sorts. I see patterns everywhere people! First, the Asians,  by this i mean Chinese, Japanese,  and Vietnam etc. The men seem to take charge. They are the ones that hold the bags, take care of tickets and things like that. Now i say this not in a bad or judgemental way. I am just reporting what i see. I also see these same men that take on the masculine roles take the hands of thier partners and show tenderness. I am reading a couple books about masculinity and this seems so interesting to me! Society seems to push that men need to be providers and take care of the bills. When in reality things are starting to shift despite the pressure put on men. The ones that seem to succeed are the ones that show compassion and can care. This goes for women too. Women don't need to be exactly like men to be able to do everything they want to. Vice versa.  Women and men are different. But, where is the balance? What makes equality equality?
