Recurring themes on this list- honor, dignity, courtesy, and self-reliance- these are qualities which we should all endeavor to possess.
Surely. I wholeheartedly agree. While some of these roles were once "gender specific", I don't see them as being "gender exclusive". I'm not even sure I can express what I'm trying to say here, but I hope that gets it close.
