The society we live in draws clear-cut distinctions between what it is to be a man and what it is to be a woman. From childhood itself, girls are conditioned to smile more and talk softly, be submissive and terrifically tolerant. On the contrary, boys are taught to dominate, direct and dictate. They're told to be loud and that aggression is the solution to all their problems. Needless to say, women are considered to be weak and therefore naturally emotional whereas men are expected to be so-called strong and emotionally unexpressive. In reality, these are just gendered stereotypes which are clearly cultural constructs internalised and normalised through years of socialization rather than some pre-existing natural order.
