Do you think if mothers dressed and treated there boys as girls for a period of time, would this teach the boys more respect for woman

Do you think if mothers dressed and treated their girls as boys for a period of time it would teach them girls more respect for men? Could it even help them become equal to men, with the same rights etc?

🤔 IDK about that, but I do know that men who had very strong willed mothers seem to have more respect for women ( at least 2 men I know)

Yes, that should be included as a part of good parenting.

Probably the opposite.

Many parents and schools treat girls with far more respect than they treat boys. Schools tend to give girls more freedom too. Treating boys the same for a short period would probably cause resentment when those privileges were removed.

No, actually - no different than dressing girls like boys and them understand what that is about.

I think it might, but I don't necessarily like this method. It feels a lot like "Do you know how we can end world hunger? Kill the hungry!" I mean, it would work, but it's not the most optimal solution.

I'm fine with boys acting like girls and girls acting like boys, but I don't like the idea of their parents putting that upon them. Hell, I wish there were no such labels of what "acting as a man" is and "acting like a lady". We're all humans and all just as capable. Why should our difference in gender change the way we treat each other? I grew up as a straight male and I respond to women equally to men. And if I could learn to respect women without needing to be treated as one, why can't others? :/

negative. Mothers who show a healthy respect for themselves and then teach how to be respectful wind up with awesome young men.

No, I think it would be more likely to have the opposite effect.

No. It's not a good concept. We're different for a reason.

No, clothes has nothing to do with the way boys treats women. Teaching them by explaining what is proper acceptable behavior is the way to teach the boys. Boy or girl, clothing does nothing to teach them how to be respectful to others.

Start teaching the child early as to what respect is and how to act/treat others, is how they will learn. Of course appropriate punishment if they misbehave.

If anything it runs the risk of turning them into crossdresser.

No. More likely get him into crossdressing.

Sort of like an internship at a hospital or being foreign exchange student for a while. It broadens ones outlook on the world as it really is.

No... of course not... that's absurd... it would seriously damage either gender...

So what does robbie1280 think of all this? She asked the question but I can't see any input from her since apart from deleting some posts.

So what's wrong with crossdressing?? Every woman alive does it every day. They wear anything they darn well please, men's or women's and no one gives a rip.

I love to see a cute young boy in girlie clothes

No, it would be a form of mental cruelty and therefore abuse

They would be better teaching “their” kids how to spell rather than f’n with their minds to suit a warped agenda.

Yes, that should be included as a part of good parenting.

No, it would not.
But it could damage self image of the son.

Think it depends on if the boy agrees

i think its worth a try

I think it would just make her boys into effeminate men and not that I think that is a bad thing..

Possibly

Yes

Not sure! But there are possibilities.. How about making boys do all works at house in front of girls when they visit over??

I think it would work as about as well as dressing girls up as boy leading to more respect for men.

why boys should be dressed as girls? Respect is taught at home and school.

Nope

no

No?

Teach your kids to be respectful. Teach them how to cook and the importance of cleaning. Shared responsibility.

Boys are sometimes taught that manly hobbies are more important than the home. The home is just as important and narcissistic hobbies come second.

Respect is key though.

It's the stuff of a lot of CD fiction, often to 'punish' continuing bad behaviour, but it has been a reality for some. It has nothing to do with homosexuality in later life, but I think it could well alter boys' attitude towards women - either more respect of more dislike, depending on the nature of the dressing and treatment, and the character of the boy himself. There is no one correct answer to this question!

No but that will confuse them about their sexuality

No I don't, Boys need to be taught respect from men towards women, why it's needed and be given all the wonderful insight they're mother can give. Repeat until 35 years of age.

This post is so old and it's still getting replies. HOT DAYUM!

By model and by example, the parents and teachers can instill respect for each other. It is all about behaviour.

Nope it will just get them made fun of

No...it would be child abuse to force that on him
