Gender roles and stereotypes

Hello everyone,

Today I will talk about an important topic. This is: gender roles and stereotypes.

As we know, the gender roles they are defined as the set of social norms and behavior that are considered appropriate for men and women of a group and social system give.
Gender stereotypes, on the other hand, they are categorized as the "natural" differences between men and women. That is, how to man and woman should be and behave "by nature".

During to my infancy, I studied at a Catholic school and it was here that I learned these ideas of behavior is very permeate in the society.
Since we were kids they have made us believe that the color pink is for women and the color blue is for men. They have  taught us the women what are we more sensitive and delicate, while the man they are rude and strong.
The woman must be the owner of the house and the man must dedicate himself to work and "develop."  This is why in many moments the men show superiority position in fron the women and injustices are growg. They want to keep us submissive but little by little we are empowering ourselves. 

In my opinion, being a man or a woman can't be a conditional. People must be free to develop as they wish regardless of sex and all the social factors that may exist. It's time to eliminate the gaps!
