[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, very much so.

I have many roles in our marriage and my H has many roles as well. That being said, it's not specifically that he is a man but the fact that he is a man is why he is immensely stronger than I am. He's also trained in combat fighting, (Krav Maga) and he is trained in using a gun. All our guns are in safes at all times unless they are holstered. If he were disabled or less trained than me then no he would not be responsible for that. He has coworkers who are female and they would be more likely to be the "protector".

I have 1 son who is extremely strong and trained in Jui Jitsu, I very much felt he has a responsibility to protect people in the face of danger and he has stopped a few fights in middle school and HS. Once there was a fight at school and [b]my son was brought into the principal's office to help him understand why my son didn't stop it [/b]and it was because he left for a doctor's appointment. I do think that this is a very unusual situation because my son happens to be extremely strong. I would not expect this of my other 2 sons.

Also, I expect my H to kill spiders. I can deal with all other bugs.

This is pretty much the only "gender norm" we have. [/quote]

This is very odd and I would lodge a complaint. Your son is not responsible for school safety--the adults are. [/quote]
