Blog 5
The first video I watched I thought was extremely intersting because I never thought about as are society changes that preferences in males and females for the oppostite sex changed as well. But now that it is brought up it makes since for we are getting near the age of equality between men and women, the needs for a spouse changes durastically. In the second video I learned that each species is created to do what is in the genes of that animal. Each animal is good at doing what they were made to do. As humans we are made to think. After reading this chapter I learned that fraternal twins aren't genetically alike anymore than a normal brother or sister. I was surprised because automatically when I saw twins I assumed they were more closely related than me and my siblings. Another thing I found that was surprising is the nature vs. nurture debate. Its hard to catorgorize which has more of a reaction on a person but they are both equal in my eyes. However say a pair of identical twins are separated, they may have the same genetic material but may act completely different because of personal experiences and environment. another topic I thought hard about and that we covered in class is parents effects on their children. Parents may act differently toward each child just by their own personal experience. Parents have alot of credit when it comes to how their child developes. They may not realize that they act differently to each child and often wonder why one thing didn't happen to all their children and only to one.

I knew that my parents had an effect on me and how i would turn out as an adult, but i never realized that my peers had a great influence on that too. I always thought that me and my sister were pretty much the same but now i realize that we are not. We have a very different environment than I thought we did.
