Gender bending assignment

for the culture of men and the culture of women, bring in three (3) examples:  be specific, not general.  Have at least ONE of the THREE with a clip of where we see the "bend."   Here is a list - but also consider movies where they put a woman in man's work (e.g., "Million Dollar Baby") or a man in woman's work (e.g., "Mr. Mom").  Does the film really switch one sex into the opposite gender - or not?  In "Million Dollar Baby" we see a woman who happens to be a fighter - but she is completely dependent upon a man.  Good movie, but not a gender bender.

Here is the other post about this assignment.
