Gender Roles

This week we have learned about gender roles and how they affect the family. I am all for women to have rights but I think that many feminist movements have gone too far. Some people believe that men and women should be exactly the same to have the same rights. That isn't the case though. It is okay for men and women to have differences that's what helps make them such a great team. Each have different strengths that they can add to the table. Society puts so much pressure on the different genders. If men don't act like men they are made fun of. If women stay at home or go to work there are people that make fun of them. It seems like a shame. God made man and women equal but each have different strengths. The mans rule is to be the provider and protector. The woman is to be the nurturer. This doesn't mean that the mom can't go to work if it is necessary, or that the dad can't be nurturing.
