Childhood
-
is childhood improving? The March of Progress view of childhood argues that childhood has gradually improved over the last century or so.
However, conflict theorists argue that this view is quite rose tinted as it ignores the fact that not all children have benefited equally from the protections and services put in place.

"Men cannot cry, women must look pretty" (stereotypes)
From our childhood, we are imposed with a lot of stereotyping like these. Boys don’t cry. Girls have to look pretty. We are continuously exposed to uncountable numbers of normalized sexism. Like ‘girls run like a girl’. Meaning we cannot run.
From childhood onwards, we are all given certain burdens to carry. Boys and girls, men and women. Like the social burdens of oppression, the humiliation of being ‘poor’, or ‘fat’, or ‘unsuccessful’ or ‘colored’. I have heard a woman with perfect body shape calling herself fat. And a rather wealthy middle-class man calling himself poor. Because she did not fit into a particular dress and he could not buy the luxury car he longed for.
We all suffer from these oppressive systems of injustice in our own ways. But because they feed on differences and vulnerabilities, not all humans suffer equally.
