2. Unit 2 Scritpt

At school boys are usually messier and more competitive than girls. Boys like to win, but girls are often better students. They are more hardworking than boys and they do more homework. Girls may be more talkative than boys, but boys are noisier. Some doctors believe that baby girls are stronger than baby boys, but buy school age girls aren’t as strong as boys. Why? Does society, our family, friends, teachers change us?

A lot of people believe that society teaches boys and girls to behave differently. They say that as adults we can change this. The new man should cook, take of the children, and be more cooperative, and less aggressive. He should be neater, more emotional and a better listener.
But are these changes possible? Can men be as emotional as women, for example?
