My Research

My research project is on the gender based roles in society. Why have female and male been divided and set apart from each other, to be not equal and have different roles that only that sex can do. If the other sex attempts to play their opposite role they are looked at weird or frowned on. Also the fact that males are dominant in society and why is this? My thesis would revolve around those ideas i have not really come up with one that fits all that i need to say in it. I am having trouble with the research, where to plug it in, what exactly i am looking for and how to organize it and put it all together. I want to know what people will find interesting about my topic, what i can relate to them ha anything that will make my paper interesting. My research project will allow people to understand that even in our modern times today we are still faced with the segregation of the sexes. Women are still expected to take care of the children and cook and men are still expected to go to work. Although there has been a very small break through with some men staying home with the children and the women going to work our society sees that as horrifying and it makes the men look weak and are to be treated like women. Why is it that men can not stay home with out question and the women be the provider? People should be more aware of what they are really going through, its why its harder for women to get jobs and men to have better social status. Because everyone has been around these ideas people are so used to the concept and because women have been able to vote and be looked at as equals that settled for that and thought it was enough. Isnt it time to have the title and be treated like equals to?
