Problem:
How can I make notes with bullet points in this paragraph? Just as men are more bound by gender stereotypes than women are, boys are more gender typed in their play and toy choices than girls are (Leaper & Farkas, 2015; Moller & Serbin, 1996). Boys' preference for gender-stereotyped toys remains constant as they age, whereas girls' interest in gender-stereotyped activities decreases (Cherney & London, 2006). In addition, boys are more likely than girls to develop "extremely intense interests" in objects and activities, and these passionate interests are often gender stereotyped, for example, collecting trains, building models, and competing in go-cart races (DeLoache et al., 2007).Why are boys less likely to cuddle a doll than girls are to play with a truck? For one thing, adult Western culture is basically male oriented: Men are given more esteem, privileges, and status than women, and everyone is encouraged to do things that are regarded as higher status. The male role is also more clearly defined than the female role, and the pressure for boys to conform to the masculine gender stereotype is higher than for girls. Boys shy away from "girly" things because if they don't, they'll receive derision from other boys and criticism from their parents. Both parents and peers condemn boys for crying, for retreating in the face of aggression, for wearing girls' clothes, and for playing with dolls. Need Assignment Help?
