Step 1

a stereotype is an over-generalized belief about a particular category of people. It is an expectation that people might have about every person of a particular group.

Step 2

It is very difficult to raise a child without gender stereotype as when a child grows he will not ever remain in the four boundaries of his protective homes. Once he is out of those boundaries, he is bound to suffer from gender stereotype outside. If it is a boy then he is expected to perform well physically in every task, be rough and tough and never cry and if it is a girl she is expected to be delicate and dainty. This stereotyping is so deeply innately impregnated into the society that it is difficult to come out of it. At some or the other point in life, one has to face it. When individuals don’t conform to our gender stereotypes the result can lead to discrimination and unequal or create an unequal or unfair treatment to a certain person who chooses to defy people’s assumptions about his/her gender.
