RE: Do Parents Stereotype Their Children's Gender?

in #steemstem6 years ago (edited)

There was an event in history that tried to pin gender on socialisation, and prove that trans people were just "raised wrong". To do this after a kid had their genitals mutilated in an accident they were raised as a girl. Turns out they absolutely hated it.

I am not very experienced in socialisation in kids, but playing an "equaliser" role could create a dependence on it, meaning that without it the side they were trying to equalise (based on stereotypes?) would then fall into those stereotypes.

Yes, I have read of those studies and I support your conclusions. It is by no means a problem of raising, but being raised in a very open family will mean that the child may experiment with his alignment. I am just worried about that being a problem, but indeed, we need more studies on that. I am confident that in the next decade we will have the results of the first generations raised like this. The data by now is not all that bad, but who knows, maybe we will even have access to cohort studies.
