I learned that girls like pink and boys like blue. Girls are weaker than men (Gender Norm Quote) both emotionally and physically, and men are more aggressive and protective. When they grow up, women are expected to marry, have children, stay at home and take care of the family, and men are expected to go to work from nine to five to support their household. These social norms have been imposed on me since the day I was born, when the nurses saw that I was a girl and wrapped me in a pink blanket. I remember visiting my grandmother in the summers when I was young and her teaching me how to sew and cook while my older brother worked in the store with my grandfather. For my birthday, when I was five years old, my grandparents even gave me a miniature kitchen set including a small cabinet, a stove, pots, pans and pretend food, so that even as a child, I can practice cooking for my future family. Since I was little, I was taught that my place was at home, where I sewed, cooked and took care of myself.
