I'm not convinced it's strictly the caseThough maybe more than I originally used to think, but that's what we grow up seeing and believing, so that's how we act.
If you take little 'uns you find girls just as enthusiastic about playing with trucks as boys, and boys just as likely to be emotional as girls...but somewhere along the road we learn how 'wrong' that is and start 'acting more like a young lady' or stop 'acting like a pansy'.
We start playing our roles in this vast game of boy vs. girl, and spend the rest of our lives trying to manipulate each other from our own ways of being.
I'm just not convinced it really has to be that way if you don't want it to be.

It doesn't have to be that way at all...I think all people really need is a bit of empathy every now and then.... regardless of gender... Every situation, and every person is different and it's how you rect to that I suppose...
See explanation of wording above... didn't really mean "Men and Women" per se....

fairy nuffApologies for the suspiciously mini-rantish response, it's just one of my interests...and still something that perplexes me about the world after years of studying it!

I love trying to figure out the world...Sadly, sitting in coffee shiop windows just watching people often makes people thing you're a weirdo...
