Women are better at multi tasking. Men are better at thinking about doing something.
Women have a cold, whilst men have flu.
Men are warmakers, whilst women are peacekeepers.

..I often find stereotypes interesting, things like blue/pink as you say...many parents have decorated their baby's bedroom in the 'stereotypical colour scheme'/blue for boys/pink for girls...so a conditioning thing..?..of associating that colour with security/warmth/safety etc, that some still feel through their adult lives..?..stereotype male/more aggressive and female/more nurturing/passive etc...and associated with 'typical childhood toys'..girls = prams/dolls etc/boys = toy weapons/trains/cars etc... a stereotype of females being the cook/chef of the house/'in the kitchen' more.../young girls sometimes being encouraged more to bake with mum/young boys not always so much...(..my OH is a great cook and he always cooked with his mum..)..

...obviously these are generalisations and I think applied 'back in the day' more..but I know from working in a school, they do still exist/the conditioning 'to be male'/and the conditioning 'to be female'...still sometimes a potentially added factor in making it hard for people to feel that they can be who they are because they have the added thing of breaking free of a conditioned stereotype...yeah interesting...


...good luck with your presentation today, Jonathan..:love:..

..stereotype of males being the ones who barbecue/I'm quite happy with that one specifically because I'm not keen on the working of a barbecue...and the guys in my life seem to love doing them...especially when they have barbecue tongues that look like Jedi wands and light up etc...me Jedi steak knight...
