Interestingly enough - the point of view from my maternal side:

Always take care of your little brother; Be like your grandfather; Be like your uncles; the way you act is a direct reflection of your mother; be physically superior; use your voice when proving right from wrong; never talk back; work harder than everyone else; don't show emotion; never harm a lady;

the point of view from my paternal side:

talk everything out; be wittier than everyone else; be verbally cunning; point fingers; physical attributes don't matter; academics are more important than athletics; be progressive; welcome therapy

As my mother braided my hair into two perfectly parted pigtails, I could not wait to get my dress on and my frilly socks.  But just because I looked the part, did not mean I played it well.  With a cast on either arm for the majority of my elementary school days, I could be found, wearing a dress and playing football with all the boys in the class.
"Tomboy!" that was what they called me. I loved "girly" things like dolls and dresses, but I loved sports too. But when it came to high school, being a 'tomboy" was no longer attractive or acceptable....but that did not stop me!

The roles were predetermined and everyone knew the rules.  There were jobs for me and jobs for my sisters.  They weren't strong enough to shovel the snow or take out the trash, and mowing the lawn was dangerous.  My sisters had their jobs too, cleaning the kitchen or folding laundry.   Girls sports teams had different uniforms, like skirts for field hockey or tennis.  Boys played football, soccer was "okay" but not as manly as football.  Girls should be nurses or teachers, but boys should run businesses or be doctors.

I grew up in a house of girls and we were constantly told girls can do anything boys can do. I am thankful I was raised around that mindset.

A woman wears makeup, tends to household duties. She is responsible for the kids. She must look presentable and never curse. Her opinions must be kept to herself. Must follow rules, sit like a lady, and never appear stronger than a man. A woman can not be too big or too small. We have to be perfect.

I grew up a "tom-boy."  I like to play sports with boys and kick their ass.  I think I've got BDE, but as a female, I also cry a lot.  Typical?

Growing up, one of my biggest memories and things I am most thankful for from my parents is when they let me dress up as Batman for Halloween in Kindergarten.  Not Batgirl--BatMAN.
