This post is inspired by an article that I read in which a great number of young Chinese men confess that they experience great pressure trying to meet the social expectations of the characteristics of men : strength, assertiveness, leadership... In reality, every single person that I know has multidimensional characteristics. A man can have vulnerable moments as a women can be assertive in her choice. One can feel confident in the morning and suddenly have a breakdown at night. Why reduce them all to a few abstract words? (I’m also curious to know more about gender expectations in other cultures, feel free to leave a comment!) #genderexpectations #genderstereotypes #chinesemen #socialpressure #masculanity #vulnerabilityisstrength #男儿有泪不轻弹 #sliceoflife #tinyeyescomics https://www.instagram.com/p/CA0Iy07iWYS/?igshid=15iuk84lbgubt

Living up to expectations is only great when the expectations themselves are equally so. #comic #comics #menandcars #dating #love #genderstereotypes #genderexpectations #rafushimpo (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-X-k6MgkAF/?igshid=121lzcabjif8j

“Gender stereotypes are correlated to gender expectations where society forms a generalisation of a certain gender type which more often that not is inaccurate. It’s the stereotypes that we place on gender that lead to the rift between men and women and within our own gender types.” - S.

What do people do when daycare closes for holidays that your work doesn't participate in???

It blows my mind that many people do not have backup daycare and sitter options, but daycares follow holidays that many jobs do not. I wish it was mandatory for jobs to follow federal holidays. Daycare isn't necessarily so that kids can learn and socialize, sometimes its the only option for parents to go to work. This is why so many mothers must work part time in America, because corporations do not care. 

My son’s daycare has been closing for big snowstorms lately, and now for President’s day this coming Monday. Guess what, my husband and I still have to work. If we don’t show up because we can’t find a sitter we will be fired. There is something wrong with the system here. Something seriously wrong.

It's 2015 and I still get heterosexual men asking "Why don't you just try it with a girl, you'll like it". That's how you know we have along way to go when heterosexuals think it's a choice. They laugh with disgust when I tell them to try it with a guy. You don't try intimacy nor do you try to fall in love with someone. It naturally happens. 🌈📖📚📓📙📘📗📕 #knowledgeispower #instagay #instafollow #noh8 #instagram #genderexpectations 🙌🏽

Gender Expectations

Growing up in a mostly middle class suburb of Ohio, I was exposed to a lot of bullshit expectations by society. Naturally, being a kid and thinking that everything I heard from adults, or saw in a commercial on tv was just the way things were. Movies and tv shows had an effect as well. I was never really taught by my parents or other people whom I looked up to, that almost anything can be analyzed in multiple different aspects. Most of the things I heard, I just took for granted and accepted them at face value, without questioning a thing. It took a surprisingly long time for me to realize that I was raised this way, and I had been living most of my life thinking the same way. It was not until somewhat recently that I began to question aspects of my everyday life that I had never given any thought to before.

I started playing soccer when I was 4 or something around that age. Then I noticed that my dad really liked to watch and play basketball, so I picked that up not too long after. Eventually, by the time I reached freshman year of high school, I had played soccer, basketball, baseball, football, lacrosse, and was a track runner. I assume that I traveled down this path because I saw that my dad really enjoyed sports, and it made him happy to watch me play as well. I started to do well in the sports that I really enjoyed (soccer, track) and so I kept at it. I was good at sports, and I was told most of my infant life that this is what boys do, they play sports and video games. Both of which I excelled at. I don’t blame my parents for not forcing me to push my boundaries, exit my comfort zone, and explore other areas of interest. As far as I was concerned, I was doing what I was supposed to do, and I was good at it. So I didn’t try anything different.

All of my friends were sport-y type boys, so I never really had to stray too far from the path which I was traveling on to feel like I fit in. This mainly continued throughout senior year of high school, by which time I was slowly losing interest in sports, but still competed in track, as I was good at that. But then I got to college where I wasn’t playing sports anymore, and didn’t have my standard group of friends to hang out with. Wow did I realize quickly how simple-minded I had been living my life. I didn’t read, I didn’t write, I wasn’t very creative or funny, and didn’t have a whole lot of interests except sports and video games for the most part. It’s now 4, almost 5 years later and I’m still learning new things every day that I probably could have figured out when I was too busy being a 14-year old boy who did exactly as he was told and never formed an intuitive opinion of his own. So it’s cool at the moment that I get to learn all these interesting things that I could have been doing for a while now. I’m really starting to recently develop an appreciation of art. Creative people are interesting to me, and I’m happy that I am learning to see the world from a different perspective, even if it was 5 or 10 years later than I would have liked to realize it. - Aaron Coolman

Gender Bias

This video is a perfect demonstration of how we generally raise our children unknowingly telling them how to act and how to be in our society. The certain things we may say to our children might be judgmental based on their gender and we may not realize it at the time. This video is a perfect example of certain things we may say to our children. After viewing this video, I did start to realize that there are some things that I have said that clearly signifies the gender bias. Oftentimes we would teach our children what we have been taught growing up. We grew up being told that girls should act a certain way, dress in a certain way and be a certain way while boys should act a certain way, dress in a certain way and be a certain way. When really, there is no specific reason as to why they should act a certain way but by what society imposes on us. There is no reason a boy should not cry if his feelings got hurt or not express his feelings as he wants - other than society would think that he is weak because he is not as masculine as should be. There is no reason why a girl can not excel at sports, get down and dirty and be fiercely independent other than society saying that it is not appropriate for a girl to do so. The reason for the gender differences was because in the past times, women were deemed inferior to men but nowadays women has the same rights as men - even though in some circumstances, that may not be the case. By imposing the same values that we have been taught, we are repeating the same cycle for the younger generations ahead of us. It is up to us to break the cycle and to educate the younger generation that it is okay to do what feels to be right.

I particularly liked this video because this showcases the common statements that are being made for each gender among the younger generation today. This is quite an awakening for those that does not realize what they are doing. As well as pointing out certain things so we would be more aware of what we are saying and how to amend that/change that.
