A little more of an understanding on why men and women have such assumptions and expectations of one another.
Just a little about me,

Introduction:
God created two different people; men and women. But what makes us different? Were both human beings but individually society has restrain us to have certain interest,appearances, and characteristics just based on our gender. To give a quick example, a women is only beautiful if she has that model appearance, and should stay at home because she solely has to take on the domestic responsibilities in the household. Sadly enough it goes both ways, men should be tough looking, buff, and should be the breadwinner of the household. I mean we all need to face it we are all created equally and should be treated as so. There shouldn't be set out restrictions that you have to look or how to live your life. The reason I find this topic quite intriguing is for the fact that I recently had a Women Studies class and realized that this is a huge issue living on today.Let's think about it guys women had to fight to even get the right to vote in 1920! Only showing that for a great time in history our voices weren't heard but men's were heard loud and clear. Even though all these standards and stereotypes of men and women were even worse before, doesn't mean they have stopped in this society. Why have we build this world up to endure these strict double standards? As men and women, we are created equal and should not assume or create standards that each gender should live off by.
