Does Gender Matter?
Picture that you're sick in a hospital. A nurse comes up to you and brings you to a room. Inside, the doctor is sitting at a desk. Now, be honest. You pictured the nurse as a woman and the doctor as a man, didn't you? Then, you might hold a gender stereotype, and you should stop it.
Gender stereotypes can lead to many problems. People often say boys should be strong, brave, and good at sports. As for girls, they should be thin, kind, and good at cooking. These stereotypes can push people into hiding their true selves. For example, men seldom build a career in fashion or art, and women seldom choose a career in sports or science. Because of this, our world may lose many talents, so it's important to fight gender stereotypes.
Many people try to break gender stereotypes. Take Jason Wu and Kuo Hsing-chun for example. Jason Wu is an excellent fashion designer. His mom never stopped him from playing with dolls as a child, and she was always there for him. As for Kuo Hsing-chun, she believes women can be strong, too. To show this, she broke many world records. Both Jason Wu and Kuo Hsing-chun are able to live lives to the full because they didn't let gender stereotypes hold them back.
Everyone is special and different in their own way. Believe in yourself. Don't let gender stereotypes define you.
性別重要嗎?
想像你在一間醫院生病了。一位護理師走向你,並帶你到一個房間。裡面,醫生正坐桌前。現在請誠實回答。你剛剛想像的護理師是位女性,而醫生是位男性,對不對?那麼你可能有性別刻板印象,而且你應該停止刻板印象。
性別刻板印象可能會導致許多問題。人們常說男生應該要強壯、勇敢和擅於運動。至於女生,她們應該要纖瘦、仁慈和擅於烹飪。這些刻板印象會迫使人們隱蔽他們真實的自我。比方說,男人很少會在時尚圈或是藝術領域建立職涯,而女人很少會選擇成為運動選手或科學家。正因為如此,我們的世界會損失許多人才,所以對抗性別刻板印象是重要的。
許多人試圖破除性別刻板印象。以吳季剛和郭婞淳為例。吳季剛是位出色的時尚設計師。他的媽媽從未在他兒時阻止他玩洋娃娃,而且她總是在他身邊支持他。至於郭婞淳,她堅信女人也能很強壯。為了證明這點,她打破許多世界紀錄。吳季剛和郭婞淳兩人能活得盡興,是因為他們沒有讓性別刻板印象阻礙他們。
每個人都是特別的,且以自己的方式而有所不同。相信你自己。不要讓性別刻板印象界定你。
