I can't say it any better so I will refer you to the Globe and Mail article. In any society there are expectations around gender roles. In theory Canada is one of the better places, but it seems like equality is not well understood. In my view, it's not really about women having equality, it's about everyone. Why should men be afraid to show emotion? Why should women feel like they have to be really masculine to succeed in business? Why should women be afraid to show that they can renovate a house or chop wood? Why should men be afraid to hug a friend in need? Why do we have so many programs for abused women and seemingly none for men? The list of questions goes on and on for me. I would love your comments on this issue.
