INSTRUCTIONS: From the time we are born, we are told how we are supposed to act, dress and speak based on the gender we are assigned at birth – just as if we had been given a script and asked to follow it throughout our lives. In the space below, please provide examples of some of the messages you or people close to you have received about how we are supposed to behave based on whether someone is assigned “male” or “female” at birth.
