For example, when I was young my grandmother was very abusive somewhat mentally and somewhat physically, I grew to dislike her very much... she would tell me how I was to dress how my hair should be and what toys I was to play with if I wanted to be a lady. I of course resented what she was doing cause me to rebel against her by shaving my hair off, only wearing "boy" clothes and NEVER touching a doll.
As i got older my parents took my out of public school (age 7) I never was around a social group of females or boys for that matter so i never developed a desire to catagorize myself, i grew up developing interest in Math, Physics, computers, the list goes on, to me they were fun and it wasn't until later I started seeing the differences the media and society made for young girls and boys... girls=dolls, boys=monster trucks ... I even saw a comercial for a kids science lab set, but the only people it had playing with it were white males... Why is society so corrupt in this manner?
