The book Meeting at the Crossroads, by Lyn Brown and Carol Gilligan, talks about the development of girls and gender roles. In it, the authors suggest that girls learn to have relationships by sacrificing their relationship with their true selves, and thus, lose their voice. Girls, do you hold things in to keep a friendship? Are men able to have more honest relationships with their friends? What do you think about Gilligan and Brown's theory?

I hate it.

Girls should be able to be there selves around anyone, even a boy!

If the people she likes and thinks is her friends she should be able to be her self and not get judged by them!!

The thing is girls try to fit in with the wrong crowd so certain people like them, but you shouldn't care what people think about u if people like you and want to be your friend when you are your self that's who you should be hanging out with!!!

Not judgmental jerks that use you and then push you down in the dirt and laugh as you struggle to get back up!!!!

Be your SELF and be STRONG if people are truly your friends they'll stay by your side no matter what,

Being your self is what makes you strong, this strength will get you through anything.

So my opinion is that girls can have a more truthful friendship than any boy if they actually try.
