Answer to Question 1

Answers should present a clear assessment of the stereotypical roles assumed by
men and women, and the influence these roles have on the developing child.

roles and provide some creative suggestions for improvement.

There is an attraction to the opposite-sex parent and a rivalry with the same-sex
parent. Boys also experience pleasure when touching their penis, whereas girls may

like) with the same-sex parent should occur.
