Examples of gender roles would be the 25 hours a week a woman spends cleaning and cooking, and the 10 minutes that a man spends taking out the garbage. As you can see gender roles are often a bad idea.

∙ 12y agoHere's a few just off the top of my head. Women are the weaker sex. (On the average, women live seven years longer than men.) Men can't wear pink. Women are bad drivers. Men can't be nurturing enough to raise children. Men will never stop for directions no matter how lost they are. (There may actually be some trueth to this.) Men make better doctors, lawyers, ect. than women. Only women engage in gossip.
