*Your write-up should include the following main parts:

1.What specific gender norms do you intend to break?

2.What reaction do you expect to receive once you have broken these norms; i.e., how or to what extent will you be policed, or ‘put in your place’?

4.What reaction you actually receive- did it match your expectations?
