“Girls have long been evaluated on the basis of appearance and caught in myriad double binds: achieve, but not too much, be polite,but be yourself, be feminine and adult; be aware of our cultural heritage, but don't comment on the sexism. . . .

They are trained to be what the culture wants of its young women, not what they themselves want to become.” WantLongYoungCultureGirlToo MuchAchieveAdultsBasesCaughtAppearanceBeing YourselfFeminineSexismCommentHeritageYoung WomenPoliteCultural Heritage Author:Mary Pipher
“Aggression is part of the masculine design, we are hardwired for it.... Little girls do not invent games where large numbers of people die, where bloodshed is a prerequisite for having fun.

“Too often little attention is paid to individual talent. instead, education goes on dividing people according to their sex, and putting them in little feminine or masculine pigeonholes ... Girls are shielded and sometimes helped so much that they lose initiative and begin to believe the signs 'Girls don't' and 'Girls can't' which mark their paths... Consequently, it seems almost necessary to evolve different methods of instruction for them when they later take up the same subjects.” PeopleBelieveLittlesDifferentSometimesSeemsGirlIndividualSexWomenLosesAttentionPathSubjectsTalentGoes OnMarkPaidMethodEvolveAviationFeminineInstructionInitiativeMasculineDividingIndividual Talent Author:Amelia Earhart
