Read the following passage carefully.
Most parents want their sons and daughters to have equal chances of success when they grow up. Today, inequality of the sexes is largely discouraged by public policy and law. However, old-fashioned ideas and a lot of prejudice are still parts of our culture and present challenging questions for parents.
Gender stereotypes are rigid ideas about how boys and girls should behave. We all know what these stereotypes are: A “feminine” girls should be insecure, accomodating and a little illogical in her thinking. A “masculine” boy should be strong, unemotional, aggressive, and competitive.
How are children exposed to these stereotypes? According to the researcher David and Myra Sadker of the American University of Washington, D.C., boys and girls are often treated differently in the classroom. They found out that when boys speak, teachers usually offer constructive comments, when girls speak, teachers tend to focus on the behavior. It’s more important how the girls act rather than what they say.
The emphasis on differences begins at birth and continues throughout childhood. For example, few people would give pink baby’s clothes to a boy or a blue blanket to a girl. Later, many of us give girls dolls and miniature kitchenware, while boys receive action figures and construction sets.
There’s nothing wrong with that. The problem arises when certain activities are deemed appropriate for one sex but not the other.
According to Heather J.Nicholson, Ph.D, director of the National Resource Center for Girls, Inc., this kind of practice prevents boys and girls from acquiring important skills for their future lives.
