“Social norms also imply that maybe guys work and earn money and women stay at home and don’t earn money, but take care of other things. Social norms, at least past social norms.
And I just want to say how much it has an influence on the motivation that we have for something. So maybe as a woman, you wouldn’t look for getting money, et cetera, to get just because you are not motivated for it because you think it’s bad, you know, and then it’s all about understanding what we really want. So if we really want to follow the model of a woman at home and the men working, then yeah, let’s not look for money.
Let’s be motivated for going how it is. If we don’t think that this model is the right way, you know, we should get different kind of motivation.
Do you see what I… Absolutely.
And I think it’s so hard to get… anyways, it’s still so hard to get out of this pattern, right? To redefine your own social norms and take the step and say, well, the way I grew up, the rules were like this and now I’m my own adult person and I’m going to make this decision and I’m going to find these other people. Maybe that have the social norms, that comply with the social norms that I tell myself I want to live with.”
