Response to Mom, Doug is a Good Babysitter 10/1

I agree with the fact that our society hasn't reached equality among men and women. Women are still thought of as the care givers that clean the house and prepare meals. Men on the other hand, are thought of as the money maker that is unreliable when it comes to care giving. Men are thought of as being aggressive and dangerous, but this isn't true for all men. I have experienced this with my older brother. When I was a freshman, I didn't trust my brother and accused him of lying all the time. He wasn't reliable, and made stupid decisions that I didn't approve of. I thought my brother would always be that way, and he would never grow up, but I didn't give my brother enough credit. Today, my brother is one of the most trustworthy person I know. He has moved on from being the "typical male teenager" and has showed me that I can count on him with any situation. I hate the typical stereotypes for males and females because it is only directed toward the selected few people of society. People change whether for the good or bad, and they need a chance to show that they can change.
