It sounds like you went through something of this yourself. I've always wondered why that happened... I mean, being socialized as a girl kind of lends one to being quiet and tolerant, but I was honsetly unable to form complete and firm opinions until I was in my twenties.
...which, considering how ignorant I was until then (and, to an extent, even after) may not have been such a bad thing.
I had opinions. I just didn't feel safe to voice them. (I have, for a good portion of my life, not felt safe about my surroundings except with adults. I really don't know where this came from, though it may come from living on the edge of a city with a pretty high gang population.)
