The Traverse of Gender Revised
With Are we Facing a Genderless Future by Kantrowitz and Women, Men and
Society by Rezzetti, Wengert and Curran, together expedite the idea that gender roles in our
future are changing now as they are forthcoming to a scene of equality. Gender roles as a whole
tends to conflict with equality as it perceives a certain sex to a specific action. Thus, when
explaining the two texts we get to the certain aspects that within Are We Facing a Genderless
Future and Women, Men, and Society tend to cover and elaborate to the perspective that we
as a society tend to see the gender roles as a system of restrictions when it comes to the
resolution of sexes. Realistically, we should break away from this broad idea and aim towards a
simplistic point of view that we as a whole could become a union that does not judge the other
sex based on how they act and look. The idea of gender roles supplementing our point of view
thus can be acted upon my reality, because it can affect with how much I believe and how it can
be acted in my everyday life as it creates a truth of what is right and wrong. Thus, acting upon
society is an idea of roles that gender is affiliated to, but the texts can be analyzed and they
address a point of view that tells us that, we must maintain the idea that we can all be equal in the
eyes of the many even if their actions do not align with the norm.
The actions that seem to persist within the two prevalent texts are that of the obstacles
that are presented to the certain people that have the identity of a different sex that society does
not seem to understand and accept. With this adaptive mindsets being assertive of some ideas this
new idea of gender problems seem to gender to the struggle that began a generation ago for gay

Robles 2
and lesbian rights archiving the idea that a constant struggle continues to emerge as the idea of
what is gender(Kantrowitz 70). The supported facts to this idea can be addressed in the essay by
Renzetti that says That parents associate their childs sex with specific personality and
behavioral traits ensuring that others identify their childs sex correctly addressing the
conflicting idea that their children must be that specific gender the parents want them to be. The
real struggle can thus be seen as a sense of repression that concludes to the idea that parents do
not want their sons and daughters to be different from what they want. Thus, these two ideas
behind gender acceptance examine the fluidity of how people really propose on how to challenge
and accept gender as a whole and that in the end there must, fight to challenge gender as a whole
idea so it can be accepted. Examined in both texts are the perspectives of the writers that seem to
address their views of gender being a problem that seems to be a challenge in the eyes of society
because we cannot tend to accept what we dont believe. Therefore, the actions examined in the
texts seem to really represent the pinnacle idea that we must learn to accept people and ideas that
we do not understand as this will help us as a whole to love and fell loved because gender is only
an idea and we must learn to change ideas we dont understand.
The authors of both texts write their ideas to examine why people do what they do to
represent their gender, as though our gender was a matter of an idea we tend to change our ideas
on how we act and believe. Within the text of Are we facing a Genderless future we tend to
examine that with a change of language could help usher in a new era, in which a persons
gender could be expressed or experienced as male, female or between thus expressing the idea
of acceptance to even the idea that occurs to us as between. This idea expressed by Kantrowitz in
the paper seems to directly attribute the idea that we must all tend to accept how we must act and
that we as a whole should learn to accept the ideas that are behind gender differences. In the text

Robles 3
of Renzentti the idea that Gender stereotypes are such a taken for granted part of our everyday
lives that we often discriminate on the basis of sex without essentially trying this setting the
idea that we discriminate on the basis on how we grew up not by how we think. The transition
ideas tend to conflict with the certain norm of how we should act and co-exist in society
compared to our other selves on how we should look and talk. Thus, the perspective of the
authors tends to change to suite the perspective of what is right in the eyes of them and then
tends to suit the biases of gender identity.
Tending to be the common idea associated with the varying truths behind what gender
roles in society aim to be associated with a baring idea of a hidden truth of what we should look
like and how our actions tend to result in our outcome. Thus, the idea of the authors acting to
represent the idea of how we should look and act seems to truly represent the philosophy of what
is originated behind what is right and wrong. However, truly the ideas that seem to originate
from these same contrast act a source to represent the many shifting dilemmas that are originated
from the vast category of gender perspectives. Through the lens of the authors perspective of the
different elements associated with the many problems that seem to originate from the usage of
vast elaborating ideas on what gender should look like and how it should be taught to look like.
The vast experiences that are proclaimed in the texts by the authors seem to also follow
some of the perspective that I have to see and overcome as a result of the gender difference that
seem to spawn in our society. With the usage of sex change being used within the society that I
live in and with the drifting idea that the advent of sex-change surgery, there were always
people who felt they didnt fit into either gender creates in illumination in the form that people
grew up in the right mind but the wrong body (Kantrowitz 71). Creating new ways for them to
think within the different and variating ideas on what was right and what seemed to be a shifting

Robles 4
idea that resulted in a broken bias towards people. Thus, the involvement of the idea that sex
change seems to effect on what my norms of what a woman and what a man seems to be,
changes how they act to know how they think because I cannot understand how a person should
be even if that person changed their sex. Thus affecting what ideas are on certain ideas, and
changing the judgement perspective of what is right thus creating an association of a right and
wrong. Again another ideas seem to be expressed in our society and that seems to be Toys for
girls still resolved around the themes of domesticity and motherhood, while boys focused on
action and adventure creating a norm and consisting with the norm of gender roles (Rezetti 78).
Thus explaining that the actions of the people of this norm that we still perceive has not changed
yet as the people still act and follow this idea that makes me believe the norm lacks support to
change. Lacking a greater identity that the people still follow the idea that correspond to the
betterment of society with the many corresponding shifting ideas that act on people.
In conclusion to the essay, the main point that can be taken out of this is that our society
creates a faade of what is right and wrong in the eyes of the many and for the ones that do not
conform to the norm of what society says are rejected and baffled on. As a vivid idea of what is
right and wrong the texts Are we facing a Genderless Future by Kantrowitz and Women,
Men, and Society by Renzetti, both authors come together to implicate the idea of gender
restrictions that affect our society as a whole. To these supplements of gender roles, we tend to
understand that they cannot be changed and it affects how people tend to express their emotions
in society. With us being able, to change what we perceive as our reality, there is a possibility
that as a whole our society would be more connected granting us with the right to have a
genderless future. To make this possible I say we must act upon what the future generations

perceive to be real about our genders and that we can teach them to become less biased, thus
learning to love everything they thought was wrong.
