Questions for thought in response to The Eye of the Beholder:
-Would this study differ if the parents were having their second or third child?
-Does this sex-typing occur in other cultures and countries?
-Would the answers differ if they were asked sometime after 24 hours within postpartum?
-Would the answers differ if the fathers were allowed to hold their child before answering the questions?
-How would the answers differ if the subject of the questions were more focused on internal characteristics than physical ones?
-How much do parental expectations affect the development and personal growth of their children?
- Why were the answers between mothers and fathers so similar when the mother was allowed to hold the baby and the fathers were not?
-Why are mothers less likely to sex-type their children than fathers?
-Does age have anything to do with sex-typing?
-What were the responses when the parents were asked to describe their babies they would to family or friends?
-Would the trend continue if the researchers asked the questions in different ways?
-Are these characteristics that the parents project upon their new born babies how they want their children to be as they grow older?
-Why does the sex of the parent not contribute to the amount or degree of sex-typing?
-Would the answers differ if the parents did not know the gender of the baby and were judging solely on physical characteristics?
-What in our society causes parents to sex-type their baby even before it is born when they know hardly any characteristics of the baby?
