That ending tho[edit]
So when people say, "I don't believe I should have to conform to society's rigid gender roles!" what is often (but not always) actually the case is that they suck at just about everything a person could want or expect from them, especially in the context of a relationship.
... Or that they think that the gender roles you've set out in this essay (women have long hair, like dresses, like cooking, don't like video games; men earn all the money, don't like housework, have ripped bods) are coercive, because they hurt people's opportunities in life, and arbitrary, because that there's no real difference between what a woman and a man can do (as opposed to a mage and a fighter).

- Also, the difference is between the comparison of a mage and a warrior in an RPG, is that theoretically, a mage would have spent a long time training to become a mage, and not say a warrior, likewise for a paladin, a ranger, or any other RPG trope you could come up with. Men don't train to be men, and woman don't train to be woman, therefore they have the option to just say, "fuck this, how come I do all the cooking and childbirth, while you do all your shit."'Legionwhat do you want from me 03:07, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
