Question: Is the rection folks speak of because of gender, or because
of upbringing.
How much is due to the way many people bring up their children, and teach
them that males are "supposed to" act one way and females are "supposed to"
act another?
How would you write for transgender people?
Would the considerations be different for a matriachal society?
