Girls don't skateboard. And if they do, you should stare at them. And make a fuss. Or scowl.

Fuck you. Nobody operates a skateboard with a penis.

(I'm admittedly a wee salty about this.)

Women bearing babies? Why science is so lacking behind in that one? Isn't it the turn for men? Come on science. Come on.

If you think that the rejection of religion affects gender roles, imagine how much more those who reject binary conceptions of gender change things. Gender roles kinda require both heterosexuality (or at least heteronormativity) and distinct binary genders. Hell this is part of why so many right wing christians are anti-trans.

This is good Kip. It concerns me when some men flounder about their 'identity' with todays fluid gender roles. They beat their chests, hate feminism and want women back in the kitchen. But they have missed the whole point. With the blurred gender roles it allows greater freedom for men as well as women. Men can be house husbands. They no longer have to feel inferior if they earn less money. They have a partner to share the burden of decision making, they have freedom to enter what was once considered feminine jobs like the caring professions, social work, support workers, kindergarten workers etc etc.
I'm so glad that men here are progressive thinkers. I'm beginning to think we should all form our own country.

After my wife became bedridden, I looked after her, our two grand children, and held down a part-time job (30 hrs/week). I'm told that I didn't do too badly but I really appreciate what "women's work" actually means. So if you are a man and someone tells you that you do something like a women, take it as a compliment.

Small tangent but this makes me think of gender specific marketing for products....I was reading something about "if your child wanted a toy meant for the opposite gender would you get it for them?" Which while I'd be all for it of course but you also have some douchebags...

So I posed the question what makes a toy for a boy or a girl? Further more what makes a product intended for a man or a woman(granted of course a penis pump or breast pump are probably gender specific) but other than that marketing for male or female seems entirely based on color...Of course red,blue and what have you is considered masculine and pink and purple feminine.....

Anytime I see a product marketed for women, the only difference from any other product of the same description is it's given a pink spray..Like I've seen guns and sets of tools that were "For her" and the only physical difference was a pink handle... So logically one could spray paint a Barbie doll red and all the sudden it'd be an action figure for a boy..Or paint a g.i. Joe pink and it's a baby doll..

It's curious how gender has become synonymous with color...

Granted I know this is a bit of a different track from the o.p but I find it an interesting addition to the subject.

I think they should all go away....every last one of them. :

Throughout most of history there were thousands of cultures, but today we are tending toward one, but it seems likely there will be a cultural upheaval, because people are so polarized.

almost all i would think and i only say almost all because i don't know if any serve society in a positive way though i doubt it and as a scotsman i get to wear a kilt which do look good on men and women equally

Every single one. I'm serious. I can't even think of a specific one to highlight. Just... all of them.

There’s theory and practice. In theory, I think men and women should behave and be treated as equals. In practice, I really, really like women who are easy on the eyes. Of course, both should receive equal pay for equal work, but in my work life I really preferred working with attractive women. Sorry if that offends anyone.

I read a meme that said;
Men must wear a coat and tie at all times and of a particular color dictated by the occasion. As usual, a woman is free to wear anything she deems appropriate for her appearance.

All of them... All of them should go away. Wipe the board clean and let's start from scratch. We could probably do a lot better if we reworked or social constructs thoughtfully.
