American women traditionally are expected to be affectionate, passive, conforming, sensitive, intuitive, and
dependent—“sugar and spice and everything nice.” They are supposed to be concerned primarily with domestic life, to be
nurturing, to care for babies and young children, to fuss over their personal appearance, and to be self-sacrificing for their
family. They should not appear to be ambitious, aggressive, competitive, or more intelligent than men. They should be
ignorant about and uninterested in sports, economics, and politics. Also, they are not supposed to initiate relationships
with men but are expected to be tender, feminine, emotional, and appreciative when in those relationships.
There are also a number of traditional sex-role expectations for males in our society: a male is expected to be tough,
fearless, logical, self-reliant, independent, and aggressive. He should have definite opinions on the major issues of the day
and make authoritative decisions at work and at home. He is expected to be strong, a sturdy oak, and never to be
depressed, vulnerable, or anxious. He is not supposed to be a “sissy,” to cry or openly display emotions that suggest
vulnerability.

自力更生, 獨立, 和進取的。他應該有確定觀點關於天的主要問題和做出權威的決定在工作和在家。他被預計是堅強, 一棵健壯的橡木, 和從未是被壓下, 脆弱, 或急切的。他不應該是"膽小鬼," 哭泣或公開顯示建議弱點的情感。.
