Everyone moves at their own pace, everyone is ready for commitment at their own time. Stereotypically women are more open to commitment than men initially. When you feel a guy is stringing you along, without ever committing to you, it's important to let him know how that makes you feel. If his intentions are good and he loves you, he will understand you. Don't threaten him and don't give him an ultimatum. In some cases you have to ask yourself: do I really want to be with a man that I had to nag to commit to me? If he says he isn't ready or that he doesn't want to be in a serious relationship: that's exactly what he means. You need to be honest with yourself and move on.

According to Devor, “ Femininity must be expressed through modes of… action which communicate weakness, dependency, ineffectualness, availability for sexual or emotional service, and sensitivity to the needs of others” (Devor 6-7).

Even as early as 2 years old, children learn to play and prefer their gender’s toys over the other gender’s (Putnam). When children grow up hearing gender stereotypes from everyone around them, especially those they love and trust like their parents, they begin to submit themselves and experience a loss of individuality trying to become society’s ideal.
