Gender Differences

In the article, "Differences. . . " it states many differences between men and women. I was raised with the stereotype that men are better than women. My dad was the one that worked in our family and my mom stayed home to raise the kids. Whenever my brothers and I would fight, my brother would just tell me to shut up, that I was a girl. I do understand that men are different from women. That would seem to be self-evident but, I think that they should be treated the same. Many women have been brought up to believe that they are as good as men. The way I see it, they are. Both men and women have their strengths and weaknesses. For example if my brother and I were to have a weight lifting competition, he would definately win. If we were competing for a babysitting job, I would win. It could be coinsidence, or it could be that we fit the stereotypes, I'm not sure. But there are things that we are both enjoy or are good at. My brother and I both keep our rooms very clean. This could be considered a femenine trait or something for a housewife, but we don' t think of it this way. We also both like so sit down and watch hockey and football. This could be considered something that is meant for guys.
