Men v Women

                          What is the impact of the gender roles that society creates and enforces?

    Gender roles is the exact reason why women seem to be less worthy than men. The stereotypical role of the woman is to make food for their husbands and stay home. Some women actually think that their husbands are supposed to govern their lives and that they cannot be independent. That sounds ridiculous. Because of the gender roles that society has created, some women think they are not worthy enough to run a business or get into politics. Then there are the men who think that women cannot do "manly" labor such as even picking up trash. There is such a separation between men and women that it is hard to believe at times. People can do whatever as they please, but society has created boundaries and limits that are difficult to go over without being judged. There are many amazing women leaders who have impacted the world in such a way that they cannot be forgotten. Today is International Women's Day and this topic could not have been better to write about. Today all the women who made a difference and stood up for their rights are remembered. One of the quotes I always remember from an African American woman is Rosa Park's infamous "no". By standing up for her rights as a Black women she made a mark in history. By society even having gender roles destroys the whole idea of women and men being completely equal. Men and women should be able to do whatever they want, regardless of the job. It is true that society is messed up, but that can be fixed. Anything can be changed with a little unity.
