Gender & Gender Roles: Men and women are different. These gender role differences promote problems and  misunderstandings between the genders. 

Gender & Gender Roles

One Size Does Not Fit All Men and Women.
By Lori Anderson

SOLO for Singles

Respected since 1991

Descriptions of male and female characteristics are generalizations.  "One size" does not fit all!

 

The problem with labels and generalizations is that all men are not one way while all women are another way. Men and women are more-or- less a certain way.
