Post #1 What makes a healthy realationship 

# data[].attributes.body
A healthy relationship is one in which there is open and honest communication, where both individuals feel they can say anything they wish without fear. There is trust, which means being reliable and trusting one another's intentions. There is respect, which honors each other's opinions, boundaries, and independence. There is supportiveness, where both of them are supportive of each other in happiness and sorrow, being a shoulder to cry on and a source of encouragement. Equality is really essential, such as both of them having the opportunity to express themselves when they make decisions. Independence, with their own friends and hobbies, is essential. They have to resolve their differences in a healthy and respectful manner. Love, through words and actions, definitely makes their bond stronger. Establishing and maintaining personal boundaries equates to feeling secure and at ease. And finally, spending time together and enjoying themselves is what makes their relationship full and satisfying. Both partners gotta put in the effort and be committed to make things work and strengthen their bond over time.

What atributes, behaviours and roles do our society acossiate with masculinity and femininity (4 each)

# data[].attributes.body
There are some attributes, behaviours, and roles that are generally associated with masculinity and femininity in society. Masculinity is generally associated with such attributes as strength and physical power, and emotional stoicism. Some of the behaviours that are stereotypically masculine are assertiveness, leadership, risk-taking, and competitiveness. In terms of roles, men are stereotypically providers or breadwinners and protectors or defenders.

Femininity, by contrast, is routinely identified with nurturing and sensitivity, and gentleness and empathy. Cooperation, collaboration, expressiveness, and emotional openness are a few of the behaviours that are linked with femininity. The classically feminine roles are those of homemaker or caregiver and nurturer or supportive partner. These connotations do vary across societies and communities, though, and both men and women can share these qualities regardless of gender.

someone you know from school asks you to send them some photos of yourself. You feel flattered, until they ask you to undress for the pictures. You are worried about what they might say or do if you say "no".

Passive: give the photos even though you are against it and don't want to

Assertive: Say no but in a kind way for eg" I'm sorry but I'm not comfortable with sending these kind of photos I'm going to have to decline your request"

Agressive: angrilly say no to what they want for eg "What the hell, you weirdo who in their right mind would do that ewwww!"

Scenario 2: Your cousin sends you racist and sexist memes that they find funny. These memes make you feel uncomfortable

passive: laugh along even though you don't find it funny

assertive: Im sorry but I do not find these kind of innapropriate jokes funny, these jokes and memes can be extremely offensive to others.

Agressive:

"omg thats so rude why would you send stuff like that you disgust me making fun of people like that"

What is the impact of fixed/strict ideas about masculinity on indivisuals and society

What is the impact of fixed/strict ideas about masculinity on indivisuals and society

# data[].attributes.body
For men, conventional constructs of masculinity tend to discourage men from being expressive about their feelings, so that they become emotionally repressed. This may result in mental issues like depression and anxiety. There is also pressure to maintain certain interests or behaviors appropriate for the traditional masculine type, to limit personal growth and self-expression. In trying to prove their masculinity, others will be inclined to undertake dangerous acts, such as drug use or aggressive behavior, which can be harmful to them. The stringent ideas can also pull relationships to the limit because individuals cannot readily express themselves or become vulnerable.

At a global level, the traditional gender roles are likely to increase gender inequality by perpetuating the stereotypes which keep both sexes out of opportunities. Cultural norms linking masculinity with aggression and domination are likely to result in increased violence and conflict. Organizational culture of the workplace could be defined by strict definitions of masculinity, which could go up to the levels of discrimination or diversity deprivation.

Social norms can also stigmatize seeking help for symptoms of mental illness, particularly for men, and lead to untreated illnesses and greater public health issues.

Resolution of such issues involves more focus on less closed and more flexible constructions of gender, allowing for open communication, and more mental health education. This way, society and individuals can benefit from a more supportive and equitable setting.

depends on the reason

If its a toxic relationship with their partner I would tell them to leave because a toxic relationship isn't healthy.
