Confining Perimeters
Men and women right from the time of birth
are subjected to stereotypical conditioning
reinforced throughout life by family and society.
Gender conditioning is both direct and intentional
as well as indirect by observation and repetition.
If men and women
learn to consider and conduct themselves
primarily as human beings rather than identifying
with their expected stereotypes of gender or role
they will be able to
* Liberate themselves
from the confining perimeters of gender
* Express themselves
more freely and in more rich and diverse ways
outside the predetermined and defining
modes of behaviour.
* Connect better on a common level with the opposite sex
and generally with other people
* Develop respect and understanding for one another
* Build more deep and straightforward relationships
There is a lot to be worked out in between
but the foundation, connecting link and liberating factor
is the key recognition and expression from the level of:
" I am a human being - You are a human being"
