Are Gender Roles Making Us Unhealthy?
This article discusses how women who view themselves as more feminine are more prone to cancerous behaviors, such as tanning and little exercise. Men who view themselves as more masculine are more likely to chew tobacco and smoke cigars. I think these are more personal decisions, over how feminine and masculine is defined.
I smoke, but so do both of my parents...and all 4 of my grandparents.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you though. I do take some steps to be masculine....I take equally as many steps to be feminine...
But we all know I am not normal!!!!
Great article, thank you for bringing this one to my attention :)
