50. I have four. While we're open and neutral, television, school, friends and their parents influence.

There are so many factors that force gender stereotypes, including the Girl Scouts of America. I met with a state chapter head and there is no guidance from a national level. Almost all GSA troops are locally controlled by the Troop leader and the girls in the troop, so most of them push more traditionally girly agendas, especially in RW country.

In my CAWP Women in Politics Rutgers-Eagleton class. Even though we might shape our kids when they leave for college, the biggest gender alignment comes in college, where most kids revert to their stereotypical gender roles. That blew my mind--here thinking by the time kids are in college, they are set in their ways, and that most colleges are a little more liberal, since they teach divergent thought.
