[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Our generation worked so hard to expand the notion of what it means to be female--you can be strong, ambitious, loud, athletic, aggressive, whatever--and now it seems like kids are putting "female" in this small, weak box and identifying anything outside that stereotype as something other.”

OP here. This! It makes me so sad. Womanhood is so powerful, and I know I have set an empowering example. That is partly why I am confused. [/quote]

That is not what is happening. You can be a strong woman and I can be a strong Demigirl. How does that diminish “Womanhood”?

Nobody said women are week. Some femakes assigned at birth just don’t fit into your expanded box.

Our generation didn’t have a box.  That’s the point.   You could be any which way, you were still a woman.  “Free to be you and me” and all that.

I don’t know, op.  Every generation needs to rebel somehow.  I think maybe this one had so few rules that they’re making up things to rebel against.   The idea of tweens coming out as “pansexual” kinda boggles my mind though.  [/quote]
