[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think being a pleaser is positive! Where are you getting the opposite? Especially for tweens![/quote] Ugh no! People pleasing is overwhelmingly gendered, skewed to disadvantage girls and women. It contributes to so much inequality, including but not limited to rape culture, gender pay gap, and the intersectionality of race, gender, etc. [/quote] It may skew, but this is an issue for males as well. I struggle to help my son see boundaries, to be willing to say no, to not take on others' feelings as his own. He too is a people pleaser. [/quote]
