Week 4 - How does gender influence family life?

This week in class, we talked a lot about differences in qualities that men and women have. It was really interesting to see the differences. Some for example were:

Men:
- aggression
-supression
-spatial oriented
-relationship oriented
-task oriented
- solution based

Women:
-expressive
-verbalize
-emotions
-relate everything
-want understanding

I thought this was very interesting in the fact that even though we are all different. We together have a lot to offer and balance off each other. I am grateful to know that we are different but equal. That women are more naturally nurturing and we are suppose to do that, whereas men are primarily suppose to protect, provide, and preside.

How does gender influence your family life then?
