Question

Compare & Contrast: Gender Roles?

Answer 1

Im doing a compare & contrast essay on gender roles

I have a couple of comparisons so far, I just need some more help thinking up some things.

WOMEN;
-Cooks
-Cleans
-Takes too long getting ready
-Easy light weight work


MEN:
-Fixes stuff
- Drives a truck
- drinks a beer
- scratches his arse


OK. XD These are obviously sarcastic answer but would someone please help me out with some better ones aha!

Answer 2

With women you did well! It is usually expected of women to do what you said, but here are a few more things I thought of...
Women/Girls (Gender Roles/Stereotypes);
- get married
- not expected to go to college/get high(er) education (sadly, a lot of people think this way!)
- have children
- do all the housework (as you said)
- be all "pretty-pretty" and impress boys
- eat daintily
- "act like a lady"

What I think would be best with men...
Men/Boys (Gender Roles/Stereotypes);
- hard working (in contrast to what you previously said, "Easy light weight work")
- fixes household stuff (like you said)
- act tough
- not cry (boys, mostly, not really men)
- (boy children exclusively) play with toy cars, trains, "manly" things
- eat a lot (or enough)
- king/master of the house

Hope this is helpful!!
