"We badly need to raise our boys more like your girls"
-Gloria Steinham
There are many who say that boys and girls behave so differently because of the way we treat them, and the ideas and stereotypes we put in their minds while they are growing up. I believe that boys and girls are different for a reason, and no matter what they will not be the same. One of my classmates suggested that maybe we should be raising our boys more like gentlemen. Teach them how to be gentle and kind, nurturing and loving, but still protecting and providing for their families. If we were to do this our boys would not have to be like a girl, but rather an even better complement to a woman. I also believe that there is something very special about a woman's ability to nurture and raise children. You cannot change a woman's natural tendencies. Men and women are the way that they are for a reason, and we shouldn't always be trying to change them for what we think is a better mold.
