Male/Female Stereotypes That Used to Be the Complete Opposite
Crying Used to Equal Manliness. In ancient Greek culture, men were expected to cry if their familiy's honor were in question. It was one of the greatest signs of true manliness. Even Japanese samurai and midieval heroes cried like babies. It meant you cared and were confident.
A "Man's Place" and a "Woman's Place" is Whatever Makes the Most Economic Sense. More women are rockin' in the workplace, and more men are staying home. It wasn't too long ago when men dominated the workplace, and women stayed home. But in the 1800's, there wasn't really a difference. Dad's knew how to change diapers and do dishes. The point was to make sure the kid lived long enough to help out on the farm. The idea of a "man's world" and "woman's world" didn't develop until the Industrial Revolution.

Cheaters!
- More than 25% of women and 8% of guys have pretended something was old when it was actually brand new
- 32% of women have hidden purchases from their partner.
There's a serious side to this, of course, with less than 10% confessing to opening a secret bank account, or having secret credit cards.
"To have a successful relationship, you need to have trust, and hiding money secrets is a huge way to break that confidence," says the business editor for the Today Show.
