I choose that because I always wondered why we have to classify our beliefs, acts, likes, etc , in a category , I mean why the society have to decide for us for example what type of clothes we have to wear, is stupid. I don’t think that it’s be okey.
Besides of being women and men for our sexual characteristic, what it’s mean be masculine or feminine? You act like a man or woman? Why is the difference?
Why we say to a little boy “that is of girls, you don’t have to play with that” or “you don’t have to wear skirts”, I think nobody can tell you what you have to do or act or say, everyone will have to decide for itself how to be. In special when we are child, when our personality is being created and developed according to experience that we live. So if we don’t teach to children that the stereotypes of gender are wrong, and don’t leave they make their own decisions about clothes, toys, etc, we will continue promoting gender differences, instead of stopping these social expectative that nothing helped us to become a more egalitarian society.
I'm totally agree with you, the society can´t continue tagging people on the basis on sex, age or skin color. We all are free to be what we want.
