Discussion 4 ( Women in Education) give more example
Last but not least is stereotyping women in education. Although it is the least stereotype that
happens to women it still makes some of them having a hard time to live normal life. Language
is powerful in challenging or reinforcing gender stereotypes but it also can be a sexist
language even without sexist intent. For instance, a PE teacher telling a girl “you’re tough like
a guy”. It can be seem normal but it can emotionally affect the girl. In school, teachers and
peers expecting the girls to behave like a girl. Girls should be well behave while boys are
expected to act out. It can affect less feminine girls in both emotionally and mentally thus it
can make their self-esteem low. Most people think that girl likes to wear something pink and
girly because that’s what people usually see. Girls who wear black colour shirt, leather jacket
or short hair might get hassled by their peers.

To conclude, stereotyping can be both positive and negative. In this 21st century negative
stereotyping needs to be stopped. The world needs to change their generalized point of view
towards women. The media also needs to show and broadcast women’s right through
television or social media to educate more spread awareness.
