Most of the time I don't think about gender stereotypes. I'm aware of them, I have always been, but since I am a student I don't have much time to dwell on them and most of the time it's just to say fuck it. But talking to him I did think on it. I am a woman. I can fix wiring in my home, do maintanence on my car including brakes belts and wiring, I do carpentry, I work making and testing concrete, I am a student of engineering. Add to this I can neither cook not sew. I am horrid at cleaning, wear work boots and jeans stained with concrete and grease (nice clothes are not compatible with cranes and concrete mixers :p ). Almost all female stereotypes I scorn. My brother is a music major. He is an excellent cook, and a good musician. He is stylish, and takes great pride in his suits. He can knit. And he is inept with any physical task. He can't even change a tire. He doesn't play sports, he has disdain for them, despite the fact that he is tall and very strong. He is also aware of the gender stereotypes, but I don't know what he thinks of them, except that he laughs at a number of them.

Both of is receive some trouble from these. For my brother in his chosen profession it only amounts to a little mocking. But in myself, I don't like it. I've never liked it. When I was a young girl growing up I beat up any boy who spoke them to me. By genetic accident I am, and was, bigger and stronger than most of them (I'm 5'9", and fairly strong and well muscled). As an adult it varies from glances at me I'm not supposed to notice to having to fight against preferential treatment given to my male classmates. I don't like people who look at me like I'm broken, or that I'm abnormal. Simply because I won't plaster my face with powders and I don't dress or act like they think I should.

But why? Why do these stereotypes exist and wha purpose do they serve (other than to irritate)? I know that men don't all hate or oppress women, but they are aware of those stereotypes as well as I am. Even those men who are my friends and acquaintances still see me as somewhat odd.

My sister is your general size and pretty tough in her own way. I don't know why stereotypes persist. But anyone who thinks they need to find out what it is to be masculine or feminine and then emulate that is pretty pathetic. You only get one shot in life. If you don't be yourself, who will? I read somewhere about how a bullfighter said when asked what it was to be masculine. He answered that he just did what came naturally and since he is male that must be what is masculine.

Now that's why they like virgins, if you know what I mean.

And do you not agree that intuition is the memory of our soul that contains our own lineage with a diminishing influence on us the farther back we go? This would be why the heavens are created in the plural and therefore is round in the singular, opposite which the world is created in the singular to be flat for humans as flatlanders there.

But sorry, I am ranting again, and I use the word farther as further in time that can be a thousand years in us, and I think that this is where Galileo was an apostle short to understand what I just wrote.

And actually, the Pope did say "for Catholics only" when he granted Galileo his wish to remain befuddled in unstructured space as flatlander still.

Have you considered a career in haruspicy? You seem like a perfect fit.

Wow, being drunk on Southern Comfort is one of the worst experiences I ever had. The hangover the next day was terrible and since then I can't even look at that stuff.

Your perfectly right in living your own life, but the reason why stereotypes persist is non-conformity and that makes those afflicted victims of our modern day society. Sorry to say, and that certainly is not their fault but is a societal dis-ease. Notice that the word 'societal' is culture driven and that is in which we, as in all of us, are a product that is designed by the previous generations with that same diminishing influence again the farther back we go, but most certainly the previous 2 because 'quality' is RNA by design instead of DNA and therefore skips one generation to rebound.

In the ideal masculine males and effeminate females make the prefect match to procreate and since the Y chromosome is the fleeting one it must be charmed to remain and therefore societies are known to be male dominant. (((This is simply true and is why many years ago in Burma very few boys were born and that is what created 'snake charming' as a 'worthy' enterprise (from the Greek word axiom that no self contradiction shall remain), and hence the sage was right to say))).

The real problem is that life is an illusion (or eternal life could not be real) and therefore a stand is made in which two opposites are needed to validate the other one as opposite. This is what placed human opposite to woman, with woman being the womb of man and human just, or nearly just, the idiot who thinks that he has something to say as the womb of man made manifest. They so make a perfect hunter-gatherer pair that the ancients called TOK and TOL with TOL being the mainstay for TOK that we would our 'right' and 'left' for short.

Then, because life is an illusion a subliminal axiom looms in which an 'estate' (or greater worth) is seen (that we would call par-ousia). In our modern day this is what set woman free to find her own destiny in life in what became known as our 'gender equal' society where a claim to fame is sought by woman on her own. And of course she will, but also fails to take care of her own womanity (archaic word these days) and that left the next generation void with no idea of destiny = no par-ousia seen for them and hence the a- was placed to make known atheism with no labyrinth (integrity) to protect -- and will obviously look for a bigger dick to ride with the barn-door (soul) left wide open.

Important to understand here is that an increase of our humanity will be at the cost of our womanity, and obviously this would be true the other way as well. This also explains where homosexuality has cause to be, and just like you and me should have the right to be as a product of our society.

oooooh...the wo-manity!
