"Barbie Doll" or "G.I. John"

I would title the poem "G.I. John". The images I would portray are those of strength both in emotions and physical stature. Guys these days are looked down upon when they show emotion, when they look weak. They are supposed to be a rock in any situation and be the one to make the first move (asking a girl out and proposing). This is sometimes such a strain on guys that they fear their true selves, in the homosexual life this happens a lot. We as a community are getting better about accepting people as who they are fat, skinny, strong, weak, straight, gay.
