Gender Roles How the Media Affects Preschool Age Children and Their View of Gender Roles I am an only child. I am a girl. I have two parents who are loving, very supportive, and after 23 years of marriage are still as happy as they were the day they first met. I attending an all girl’s high school, where I wore a skirt and tights every day for 4 years, and loved it. With all of this in mind you might think I am quite a girly girl, but what is the definition of this, and furthermore what do the things I have told you have anything to do with being one' Well these things could all have a lot to do with what people in today’s society consider a girly girl. I however do not fit into that stereotype. I was the girl who played all the sports in school. I dressed in pants and boys shirts, in fact in terms of stereotypes I was what people call a tom boy. I think the only doll I ever had was a Barbie doll whose hair I shaved to make it look more like a boy.
