Lois Gould X: A Fabulous Child’s

Lois Gould X A Fabulous Childs Story brings up the factor of raising a child gender-neutral within a fellowship that categorise and stereotypes people by their gender and sex and how these gender roles ar reinforced in participation. Goulds X A Fabulous Childs Story is rough a child named X who is born for an experiment. The experiment is for two parents to show a child where no one including the child knew whether it was a priapic child or girl in exchange, 23 billion dollars and 72 cents for the follow of raising fumble X.This experiment was to show whether or not male and female characteristics are developed genetically or external. Baby X was increase as a happy health child who was raised and allowed to do everything both male child and girl children do, it did not matter whether exclusively male childs where suppose to play football or girls where only suppose to cook cakes, X was raised to know no differences and did both. X was never categorized or stereotyped from it parents as to how X should look, act, feel, or dress plate on its gender.Because raising a gender-neutral child- similar X would be difficult an different any other Xs parents were given an official instruction manual on how to raise an X. The instruction manual helped answers and solve closely of the questions and problems Xs parents can crosswise raising X in company designed for males and females. In todays ordering from the moment parents find out they are expecting a child closely people want to know whether they will be having a boy or girl, and once a mother gives birth to a baby the first thing that is announced is if the baby is a boy or a girl.If you ask any expecting family what they wanted their baby to be most people the first thing they would most likely say is a healthy baby and, then they would say either a boy or girls and for those who say the gender-sex of their child does not matter, in actuality it does. This is because we live in a society where s ociety automatically characterizes people by their gender. sex activity in todays society predetermines what you should wear, how you should act, feel, and look.Goulds X A Fabulous Childs Story is an pillowcase of parents who tried to raise a gender-neutral child in a society that defines males and females from childhood by the way they dressed to the actives they participated in, an when a child like X was raised to ignore and defy all of societies gender classifications theres an up roar from childrens parents. Although the children are at first confused and to curious as to if X is either a boy or girl, that later endure and embrace the factor that X is just X and does not shoot to be classified and defined.The parents of the children are not as accepting they need to find out the sex of the child, pressuring the principal and the parents to have X examined by outside experts. In society where your gender seems to predetermine how you should act and put up it is difficult t o cross the invisible line that is in places for roles of males and females. I consort with Gould on the factors of how society has put in place, invisible lines of what your gender allows you to do, and what is grateful in society.I also believe the school system does reinforce gender roles as to what society feels is acceptable, although there is a shift in society on the roles of women and men and what they can do. Today women are portrayed as heroes who hold the same positions as men and are, caring mothers, who slay care of their families because of this they line of what males and females are only supposed to do is cross and is becoming acceptable.Goulds X A Fabulous Child also prove that children are better accepting to change and differences from people, it is a childs parents that changes the childs perceptions of differences and what is acceptable. To live in a gender-neutral society would be ideal, but I feel society would just find another way to classify and defin e people.
