What I Already Know About My Topic

My topic is about girls or females being able to participate in male activities. I, Gabrielle Conner, feel that things should not be sexist; a guy can do what a girl can do and a girl can do what a guy can do. I can understand that some festivities or male performances are specifically for males but the activites that do not specify which gender should be attending, should be for both genders. If the festivity is origanally intended for males, but does not specify, there will be some females participating. In the 1900's males and females did NOT participate in the same actions. Women usually did the cooking and house work while the men did the yard work and got the food. People assume that women are not capable of handling what a man does because we are not built like them. When the fact of the matter is, we can. Some say that the women had the manageable labor while the men did the concentrated chore. As the years progressed, women became more activily involved in what the men typically did.Now a days women and men do a little bit of everything. There are still some circumstances in which they can not intertwine. Most guys think that girls should do what girls do; they do not need to bother the guys. There are a few guys in which it really has no affect on them as long as they get to do what they intetially planned. The way you were raised also depends on your outlook of this topic. If you were raised without having rules, no chores,  getting anything you wanted, and not having to earn anything, more than likely your going to stay away from boy things. If you were raised where you had house hold rules, were not inside all the time, had to earn what you wanted then you will probably be like me; enjoying the outside, hanging with the guys, and enjoying male activites. This theory of mine is the same with guys. This is similar to people being racist. When people are being racist or saying racist jokes, some people think its wrong just like some people think that it is wrong for girls to associate with male activities. To others, it may not affect them; they just go on about there day. Just like when girls engage in male festivites, it does not have any regard or disturbance to some folks. Everybody is different but we need to understand both sides, male and female. Doing unisex activites helps to better understand each other.

  2. Yes but some people are against it. I know there is a girls football team, a girl nascar driver and things but some males and females think that guys and girls should not interact or associate through sports or any activities.
