Do you get offended by the stereotyping of girls / guys?

Question

Boys and girls: What presumptions do you hate about your gender? Which ones do you think are true and which ones are false?

Answer 1

I personally think it's rediculous when a guy tries to tell me that all girls have L*****n tendancies. Maybe if the stupid, low self esteem girls stopped kissing other girls in bars just for attention guys wouldn't think that.

Answer 2

Both boys and girls are pressed into roles in the culture, the ethical standards and the everyday life.

I hate the hiding of feelings among boys. You must hide yourself to protect you.

I also am tired of that it is expected to "have" a girlfriend or a wife. This must happen out of a wish from both.

We need love as the Beatles song many years ago.

I must also say that am so stacked up in the male role that I dear not say this to anybody.

Answer 3

I don't know if I get offended by stereotyping as much as I get annoyed by people being the stereotype because they are too lazy to be a better person.

I especially hate when women act out all the negative stereotypes. I feel that they are throwing out all of the gains we have made because they are too lazy to use that lump 3ft above their *ss.

An example would be when a woman using s*x to get what she wants rather than her brain. > Prime example of why we aren't breaking through that glass ceiling, this behavior allows folks to not respect a females full capabilities.

There are so many more too numerous to list.

Answer 4

i beleive the only difference between boys and girls are the physical genitals and b***s, thats it.

Answer 5

This is a very vast question... but i will give just a couple of examples.

I hate the assumption that a girl doesn't know about cars and stuff like that. I know of a few girls who know about cars and probably have the same knowledge as a guy would have... but i guess thats a stereotype in itself about guys!!

Erm... i guess i hate guys who feel a girl would feel intimidated around a particularly good-looking guy... i know a few stunning-looking guys who feel that a girl should be putty in their hands.. but this isn't the case. Girls need to have intelligent conversations and all that too!!

I'm gonna stop there... good question though! :)

Answer 6

Well, in my school (the social environment), all the girls and even some guys really like to act like they are so cool and blah blah.

What I mean is, they think they are super-popular, and they can criticise you whereas they are better or special in their eyes.

Or, they think it's cool to have a boyfriend (even though most don't) when all they ever really do is hang out in school and maybe in malls outside, but hardly ever what really BF-GFs do.

Or, they think they do everything right, and are superior/above, and really snobbish........also, there are the people who were not like this but got pulled into it....

And how girls always over-react about us guys (at the mere mention of anything to do with the body which they think is "gross"....though it's ok when they are the ones saying it). Bitchy, bitchy people....

Answer 7

You can presume what you like - I know what I am/am not. As for true and false, neither as no steroetype applied to all within that category. Such a boring answer I know.
