title: Adolescents' attitude toward female gender roles: implications for education.
abstract: This exploratory study begins with a number of teachers in a Midwest school system being asked if they believed adolescents in general have a more flexible attitude toward female gender roles than do older generations. Over 90% answered yes. The study then proceeded to examine whether adolescents' attitude toward flexible gender roles was indeed more flexible than that of older generations. Implications for schooling are then discussed.
