Boys and Girls (short story)
"Boys and Girls" (1964 / 1968) is a short story by Alice Munro, the Canadian winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2013 which deals with the making of gender roles.〔Marlene Goldman, (Penning in the Bodies: The Construction of Gendered Subjects in Alice Munro's ''Boys and Girls'' ), ''Studies in Canadian Literature / Études en littérature canadienne (SCL/ÉLC)'', 1990; 15 (1): 62–75.〕
== Synopsis ==
Whenever she shares her daily routine farmwork with her father, the young narrator is taken to be a boy by visitors. She tries to keep away from any work in her mother's range of tasks because she does not really take any interest in that kind of work. The narrator remembers that by the time she was eleven years old she was faced with more and more expectations of what a girl should be like and what she should do or not do. Her role in the family began to change, and the narrator concludes with telling the story of an event in which she behaved according to her intuition, is squealed on by her younger brother and subsequently is being assigned the new gender role by her father. The narrator's last comment reads: ″Maybe it was true.″
