For my Anthropology class, we have to break a gender stereotype. The guys have to go out in public and do something that is considered feminine (like wear a purse or make-up) and the girls have to go out in public and do something considered masculine (like sit with our legs open). So what's something that I can do that is considered masculine?

The answer to your question changes according to where you live and the way that you were or are being raised.
For instance, if you lived in the old west, but ventured back to the colonies to visit and actually rode your horse forward instead of side saddle, you would be breaking a stereotype.
Now a day, at least in America, its very difficult to break any more stereotypes, especially in large cities.
Basically, look around your own little world and see if there is anything that is still very much a male oriented sport or career.
In larger cities, maybe wearing ;your jeans around your ankles with your boxers showing full throttle could be something to do.
Wear a football costume. whistle at a guy, stare at a guys chest area whiile talking to him, avoiding eye contact, just stare at his chest.

Specifixally, the Bible admonishes God's followers to avoid sexual immorality.—Leviticus 20:10, 13, 15, 16; Romans 1:24, 26, 27, 32; 1 Corinthians 6:9, 10. Those scriptures do not say anything about feminimity and masculinity. Many Christians believe the way they do in these subjects because the believe in the principle to not stumble anybody. For examle, If a guy was overly feminime, he would most likely blend in with the flambouyant members of the gay population. Do you think an onlooker would think to himself, "surely that man is a Christian?" Of course he wouodn't!! As Jesus explained in principle and through example, Christians should live and present themselves as such and not blend in to "the world" and its immoral desires, at the same time stumbling his brothers and sisters. Besides there are no indications in the Bible that some of his worshipers were more feminime or masculine in their manuerisms than expected. Just something to think about.

Find a place you've never been to before. Do a Mapquest search, leave the instructions at home and "try" to get there without stopping to ask directions.
For it to really work, you must take a friend with you who has no idea what you're up to - they must get angry enough to attempt to force you to stop and ask directions - you still cannot!

Slap a girl in the rear. Drive a truck. Work with tools. NOT shave your legs and armpits. Flirt with overtly sexual themes. Act as if you are the shiznit and want everyone else to know it.
Glance over and over at a woman's breasts as she talks to you.

Do a set of spectacular roundhouse kicks on the sidewalks. Do you know how many women already sit with their legs open? Also, you could pee standing up in the men's room... that's probably not a good idea..... ummmm.... OK......

Wear a tie? Go without makeup?
Personally I don't believe in gender roles and probably break them every day without thinking about it.

Drink beer, fart, watch football, run out of gas (in the car). The list goes on and on.
