By Robyn BrownIn the United States we learn our gender role at a really early ages. We was taught boys must be masculine whereas, girl must be feminine.Children know the parents role by the ages of three. They know the fathers role is to go out to work for his family and the mother stay home in work. Also the toys the child receives also help the child define the role of gender. For a example I did a experiment on my friend son. He is only three years old. I took his toy away from him, he started to get anger, so I gave him the toy back but it was the wrong toys. I gave him a doll baby because I wanted to see did he know what gender, play with dolls. His respones was " thats not my toys, that for little girls". In this video it show children doing the same thing like my friend son did. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWc1e3Nbc2g I think the gender role have fail in this day and time. Today woman work and take care of the household. I also see woman doing hard labor jobs as well. Years ago their was job only for men policeman, mailman, and fireman etc. Womans were not able to work at them type of places but today that has changes.Woman are no longer taking the back seat anymore. Woman came along way in the United States. I think we discrimination went its come to gender and we still do.Went we do discrimination it may lead to this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWc1e3Nbc2g.
