Gender courses for teachers, boys and girls in primary and secondary school

The world changes; the social meaning, for example, of being a woman is extraordinarily different now that only a few decades behind. However, we, the men, have not put in doubt our role, we, the men, have not questioned us, we have not reworked our social role: we continue performing in a very similar way to our fathers and great grandfathers performed. Our current role creaks, does not fit in a transformed society. Which has to be our role in this transformed society? It will be necessary to reply this question in a practical way.
