Female Gender?
I identify as a female in this gender-contracted world. I have grown up with the perceived notion that Gender is a scientific idea that has been proven over and over again. However, there is no data or science to prove this, showing that Gender is a Social construction. And this is very evident in the way I grew up. I grew up in a wealthier neighborhood in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and went to one of the private schools. Here, the school advertised itself as an open place for children to flourish with their identities and gain a preparatory college education. But they cannot promote the truth that being a female at this school affected how teachers, coaches, and classmates perceived us. Due to a wide range of demographics at the school, the females were mainly scripted as weak, emotional, dumb but still having to be intelligent, athletic but not as good as the guys' teams, and an object. Our school dress code made this male/female Gender distinction very clear...
