Gender stereotypes can have negative connotations, like those above, but they can also have positive connotations, even though they’re often overgeneralized. For instance, the notion that women are better caregivers than men is a positive connotation, but it is a generalization and not necessarily true in all cases. This is similarly so for the notion that men are better providers than women, which while positive, can be disproved by looking at cases where men have abandoned their families and defaulted on child support. Therefore, it does not involve an equal attitude towards boys and girls.
