"When a man and woman's roles are not distinctly divided it is called a 'blurring of roles.' In this case the woman does part of the man's work and he does part of hers. When this arrangement is temporary, it is not a problem, but if it becomes a lifestyle it can be injurious to the family. If children are to develop their sexual nature, they need a strong masculine and feminine image to pattern from. The mother demonstrates this feminine image when she functions in her feminine role. As she moves about the house in feminine clothes, tending to her domestic work, tenderly caring for her children and nursing her baby, she provides this image. If she also indicates contentment and happiness in her role, she gives her children a positive picture of femininity. When the father functions in his masculine role as a strong leader, protector, and provider, and when his children are given the opportunity to see him in action once in awhile, and see that he willingly assumes his masculine responsibility and enjoys his work, he provides them with a favorable masculine image. With this distinct masculine and feminine image in the home, boys grow up to be masculine men and girls feminine women." -Helen Andelin, "Fascinating Womanhood," pg. 104
