What are your definitions of "man" and "woman?"
Man: strong, chaotic, hardworking Woman: intelligent, helpful, responsible
Are there any specific gender roles that you think should be there? Are there any you wish did not exist?
Man protects, woman nurtures
Do you conform to the society's gender expectations? Is there anything you do that is not usually associated with your gender? If you do conform, is it more because society expects you to or because you identify with the expectations?
I do conform with the gender expectations because it is what society expects
A lot of the time when it's socially acceptable for a man to expose his chest, a woman has to cover hers. Yet when it is socially acceptable for a woman to show her legs, arms, and cleavage (think dresses), the same is not acceptable for a man. What are your thoughts about these two situations?
I think it is not actually socially acceptable, it's just that no one argues against woman showing skin, but they argue when a man does it because they do not want to see it. It is not right though.
In many cases, women and girls are encouraged to embrace their masculine side, while feminine men and boys are looked down upon by society. What do you think about this? Why do you think femininity is seen as less than masculinity? How does this relate to discrimination in the workplace?
I've never really heard of this women embracing masculinity, but I think that men think they are more powerful because they can overpower the women in strength.
Is it important to make the world a more welcoming place for gender nonconforming people? If so, how can this be done?
I think the world has already done a pretty good job in civilized countries, but it could help if gender did not matter at all when accounting jobs, salaries, and etc.
