Blog #8 "How to Watch your Brother Die"

In the story "How to Watch Your Brother Die" by Michael Lassey, there is a conflict between these two brothers. Through the context of the story we can infer that one brother is a homosexual and one is heterosexual. The heterosexual brother has very traditional views and doesn't want to accept that his brother is a homosexual. He doesn't like the idea of it and it goes against what he believes in. The twist to the story is that the homosexual brother is dying. As his brother is dying the heterosexual brother begins to become closer to his brother and more accepting of his way of life. The heterosexual is so set on his traditional views throughout the poem that this is surprising that he starts learning to accept him. In the poem the heterosexual even says that he would rather hug his children than his brother's lover. Both this poem and the commercial that we watched are trying to show that there are many different sexuality in the world and that we need to be accepting of all of them.  Both of these display this message in a different way but both are just as effective. The commercial was showing that everyday life was the same through a gay couple while the poem was showing that even someone with the most traaditonal views can learn to be accepting.
