[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I tell my boys that they can do anything girls can do. I tell them that they are biologically stronger than girls. I tell them that men do all the most dangerous jobs [b]and that the jobs that keep society functioning are mostly male dominated[/b]. [/quote] What about the fact that most caregiving jobs (eldercare, childcare, and even healthcare like nursing) are female-dominated? Imagine society if all women went on strike and decided to not take care of any other human? This is one of the most overlooked and undervalued job functions and attitudes like yours are not helping women. [/quote] Telling her boy children that they have worth and are valuable is good for society. Men and women, in "traditional" and other roles, have worth and are valuable to society. This either/or thinking is harmful to girls and boys and society.[/quote]
