Don't forget massive pay disparities across the board.

It isn't that most of the stereotypes and gender conformity elements are disappearing: they're just being subverted more often.

Are you sure about men not asking direction? Because my dad asked. Later I asked too. Maybe we didn't know we shouldn't.
