HELP, pick one and do a quick write of what you think Quickwrite 1: Some people assert that just one or two generations ago men and women seemed to have more rigid codes for how to behave: for example, men could be loud and assertive while women were expected to dress modestly and use a “feminine” voice. Do you think these codes or “rules” for male and female behavior still hold true today? What codes or “rules” apply to those who do not identify with one gender or the other? What experiences and observations can you point to as support for your position?
Quickwrite 2: Women and men now work in a greater variety of jobs than ever before: women take combat roles in the military and serve as police officers and firefighters. Men work as nurses and participate in cheerleading. More individuals are refusing the male/female binary, identifying themselves as gender-fluid or non-binary. Do you think there are still jobs or activities (for instance, sports) that are better suited to men or women? If so, what are they and why? If not, why not?
