This is so hilariously wrong. Let's dig in to why:
> we'll fix all these gender inequality problems once parents stop making such a big deal about gender
Citation needed. Gender matters. It's possibly the most fundamental component of the ego. Different genders react differently to stimuli.
> girls are not respected because they are raised to be shiny princesses with no real power
Massive, massive generalization here. Girls are respected (among men, which I assume is your grievance) when they show up and work hard. My wife was raised in an ultratraditional Christian environment, wasn't allowed to wear pants until she was 18, and had to wear a headscarf whenever she left the house. Talk about taking someone's agency. She's the blue-collar worker between the two of us, and she's well-respected at her job because she puts in the work and is helpful.
> boys often have violence issue as in the article because they are raised to be "tough"
You need to hear this: boys tend to be more violent. That's what testosterone does. It raises aggression, lowers empathy, and lowers agreeableness. This is normal, boys fight. This is where the phrase "boys will be boys" comes from—not rape apology. Boys have anger issues at a higher rate than girls, but oddly, it happens more when they don't have a good father figure, one who will teach them how to bottle it up when it needs to be bottled up. I'm sick and tired of women with no experience of being male trying to tell men how we should deal with our emotions. Sometimes, being raised to be "tough", as you so eloquently put it, is absolutely necessary.
