What I mean by this is, “do you feel you have to act a certain way because of your gender?”. Many of us do to some degree. Let me ask you this. See if you think of a specific gender when I label the below emotional states
- Love
- Anger
- Lust
- Envy
- Fear
- Shyness
- Bravery
Was one emotion more strongly linked to a gender than another? This may be rightly so. Different genders experience different emotions at different rates. But this doesn’t mean that individuals can experience emotions outside of their “gender averages”.
