“Men are better in sciences while women are better in the humanities”. This is such a disgusting stereotype and it honestly makes me sick at this point. It has already been known that these gender based stereotypes play a huge role in influencing the people on what career path they choose. So it is very disheartening to see that such stereotypes are still being encouraged in our society.
Women are labelled as not smart enough for science while men are labelled as not in touch with their emotional side enough for the humanities. This mindset is just stupid and all it does is make people feel bad about themselves if they don’t fit these stereotypes. Our society needs to change it’s stance when it comes to any sort stereotypes, particularly the gender-based ones.
