Mandatory Post

I was socialized in my gender by my mom. My mom always told me when I was younger I needed to help out in the kitchen because I am a girl and need to learn how to cook for my husband and kids one day. Which I never really though about this till now it didn’t really bother me back than. Now that I think about it I wonder if I didn’t learn how to cook what would she have said. My mom would always tell me I need to carry myself as a young lady because I represent them when I go out into the world and if I look bad then I make my mom look bad because they didn’t raise me right. My mom mainly socialized my gender.
