My research question is "Does the modern definition of masculinity oppress young boys?" The genre I am writing in is Op-Ed and I will be writing this all in google docs. My audience is young boys from 5-10 but also parents of young boys 5-10 to not pressure them into "manly" things. The films I watched to find interest in this topic were Miss Representation Film (Kanopy) and The Mask You Live In (Kanopy). My past experiences writing research papers are doing MLA format. It was always difficult for me to do this because we always had a source requirement but no guidance on where to go. They showed us databases but just a few that the teacher liked not the best for this project. Here are the blog posts about the research project
