Hi Dianna,

I would agree re the gender roles, and that things only seem to work one way, although I definately disagree with the aspertions in the article that Europe is feminised to a great extent.

I think there is a breaking point we are heading towards here both in terms of gender roles we are different but need to work together to achieve common goals, but I think popular culture has a lot to answer for in terms of making people follow the herd in how they act. If more people thought about how to act as an individual they would question things more rather than just accepting things (i.e. low voter turnout in the young) and decide how they want society to be.

As an individual I am feminising myself because I dont want to be stuck confined to a specific gender physically or mentally but at the same time feel that both sexes need to learn from each other, maybe acting in traditional roles is the only way for that to work. I am much more glad I live in a tolerant and open society and I think that actually works better for most people than a binary approach to things.
