Subject: Sex Roles

I think a truly free personality means that anyone, anywhere can be anything they want regardless of cultural standards and expectations. Personally I'm kind of old fashioned, I like the idea of a woman staying home and taking care of her family while the husband is the bread winner. My view probably comes from the fact that that's how it's always been in my family. That doesn't mean that everyone has to agree with me. There are so many people out there with so much potential, but their ambitions don't lie in "the norm" of what society says is acceptable. I can't for the life of me understand why a woman would want to be a police officer, firefighter, soldier, etc. But if that's what they choose, then I'm sure they'll be all the better for it. I don't think these kind of prejudices will ever quite go away, but another great thing in our society is that we're free and if doing something that doesn't quite fit the mold is your American Dream, go for it.
