The great thing about this week was learning about how important different genders play in life. Learning about the strengths of each gender and the benefit of what each brings to our lives. It was interesting learning and talking about how when we change having both genders to support a family. This was interesting to see all the different opinions we had as well. Talking about where homosexual attractions came from and where they began. It was interesting how little things like over reacting or worrying about if your child is gay and then enforcing ways to make them not that way, it actually could end up causing them to become more of that way. It could stress family relations between other members of the family. It really was interesting to talk about the different ways we could help people see the importance. For example think if your son was playing with barbie's than as a father you could play with him for a little but make sure that he plays the Ken doll. This giving him opportunity to develop the different male tendencies and interests. What was neat to me was that I came to realize all these different ways to avoid these kind of reactions was actually opposite of what I thought would help. It also helped to talk about it in class and see other peoples opinion and why they thought the way they did. By the end of the week I have really come to see a better understanding not only about the importance of gender but what each has to offer in a relationship. It is amazing to me how Heavenly Father has planned it out in a such a beautiful relation and why it is ordained of God.
