Question of the Day: Day 110
Do you think think that it is okay for society to even have expectations of people based on gender?
(function() { (function(){function b(g){this.t={};this.tick=function(h,m,f){var n=f!=void 0?f:(new Date).getTime();this.t[h]=[n,m];if(f==void 0)try{window.console.timeStamp("CSI/"+h)}catch(q){}};this.getStartTickTime=function(){return this.t.start[0]};this.tick("start",null,g)}var a;if(window.performance)var e=(a=window.performance.timing)&&a.responseStart;var p=e>0?new b(e):new b;window.jstiming={Timer:b,load:p};if(a){var c=a.navigationStart;c>0&&e>=c&&(window.jstiming.srt=e-c)}if(a){var d=window.jstiming.load; c>0&&e>=c&&(d.tick("_wtsrt",void 0,c),d.tick("wtsrt_","_wtsrt",e),d.tick("tbsd_","wtsrt_"))}try{a=null,window.chrome&&window.chrome.csi&&(a=Math.floor(window.chrome.csi().pageT),d&&c>0&&(d.tick("_tbnd",void 0,window.chrome.csi().startE),d.tick("tbnd_","_tbnd",c))),a==null&&window.gtbExternal&&(a=window.gtbExternal.pageT()),a==null&&window.external&&(a=window.external.pageT,d&&c>0&&(d.tick("_tbnd",void 0,window.external.startE),d.tick("tbnd_","_tbnd",c))),a&&(window.jstiming.pt=a)}catch(g){}})();window.tickAboveFold=function(b){var a=0;if(b.offsetParent){do a+=b.offsetTop;while(b=b.offsetParent)}b=a;b<=750&&window.jstiming.load.tick("aft")};var k=!1;function l(){k||(k=!0,window.jstiming.load.tick("firstScrollTime"))}window.addEventListener?window.addEventListener("scroll",l,!1):window.attachEvent("onscroll",l); })();
We are looking for answers to some hard questions as we dig deep inside and explore our own core values and how that guides not just our own lives but the very world that we live in. These questions will be asked to a group of high school students but we would also like to hear from the world at large. While we hope to keep this forum wide open we do reserve the right to delete responses that we find to be offensive or combative in nature. Thank you for participating with us.

I'm sure I have some behaviors that I do because I'm a female.
No, I don't think it's okay for society to have expectations of people based on their gender.
Maybe, but I try to judge noone, try, and I don't care who judges me - I'm just me - and I have behaviors that some would consider "too effeminate" - I know who I am, and I respect and enjoy being me.
Ruben 16,
yeah i do like give more attitude than girls give or dont like flowers or butterflies just cuz im like that.
yes i do mine is i have more attuide just because i have to make sure that people think they can walk all over me and think that it is ok. *“I AM NOT SAYING THAT FEMALES DO THAT SO PLEASE DO NOT TAKE IT THAT WAY”*!!! NO, i do not think that society should have expectations on people based on there gender.
I've always been kind of like a tomboy so I don't think that I do anything specifically because I am female.
I think that all people should be treated with respect and dignity and be allowed to play with whatever toys they want to, dress how they like, and pursue whatever careers interest them and not be held back because of gender.
As I have gotten older & gained life experience, this has become less true, for me. However, there are ways in which I like being feminine & will continue to do so... I like lip gloss, polished toes, & I have a bit of a desire to have my soft side appreciated.
