The Sexual Self

The Western and Eastern Concepts of Self

Everyone has a different concept of self we're totally different in our own ways. The word 'Unique' for me is perfectly described in human's personality. Even though you're from western and I'm from eastern and has a different personality, as long as you respect me I will return it to you. It doesn't matter if you're from western or eastern, the matter here is your kindness in your heart and in your soul. We're totally separated but we have the same kindess, that matters.

Psychological perspective of the self

Each individual has a different personality, most of the people they adopt their personality through home and environment (it depends where you live or grow). There are people that they are high tempered, they easily get mad even to the small things. Those people are risky when they speak especially when they're mad. In this chapter, i've learned that not all the time we have hurt someone when we're mad for them to be know what we are feeling to them. We also know our limitations because not everyone can handle your attitude level. Just spread love not war.

Sociological Perpective: The self as a product of society

Most of the Generation Z/Millenials experienced changing their self to fit in the standard of the society. Nowadays, when you're not updated to the latest fashion then society will easily judged you as a low class person (well, that's the reality) so you as person that wants to fit in the standard of the society and don't want to be judged, you have to change your self so that the society will not judging you as a low standard person. However, There are people that they don't give a damn what happen to the society. They will not changing their self because their real self is their passion and they don't want to change to fit in the standard of the society. In this chapter i've learned that it's okay to change your self (but not 100%) because it's a part of growing up and it's a part of a human nature. Just enjoy the life and don't mind those people who are insecure to you.

Philosophical Perspective of the self

"An Unexamined life is not worth living"-Socrates. That quote of socrates really hits me as an individual because you have to know more your self and to examine your self, you have to do a such things that will make you realize that you are what you are. In this chapter i've learn that everyone has a philosophical perspective in life even though you're just an simple individual but still you have your own philosophical perspective. Make sure that your philosophical perspective is/are related to your self at the same time everyone can relate to your pilosophical perspective.
