Are you a woman raised by a man?

[myidentitymycrisis]

Prompted by the thread about what we know about men we wish we’d known earlier, several comments about how socialisation of men and women influences behaviour, obviously in a societal context but also in the home. I’m interested in hearing from others who like myself and my siblings,male and female, were not raised by women and how we think that affected our expectations of ourselves and the opposite sex.

It is interesting isn't it? I think it's all about a balance of nature and nurture, your personality, the circumstances in which you find yourself, your family background etc that will shape how you parent more than gender.
