VERITAS ET MISERICORDIA

DEVELOPING PEACEFUL CO-EXISTENCE:

GENDER TOLERANCE AND SENSITIVITY
 GENDER TOLERANCE
 Today, we will not be having lectures or information
inputs but an activity that will help us understand the
other half of humanity -- the other gender. Men and
women have continuously lived, for the entire
existence of humanity, on each other’s arms or on each
other’s edges. There havebeen clichés too that these
genders would actually put each other on two different
parts of the galaxy such as men are from Mars and
women, from Venus. However, let us not highlight the
differences between gender today but keep an open
mind in understanding (hopefully) the other gender.
