Wednesdays Question #19

It's Wednesday so that means it's question time. There isn't a right or wrong answer to this question as everyone has different opinions on any given issue.

So here's this weeks question:

When you were growing up what were you going to be when you grew up? Did you do that or did you do something else?

I didn't want to do the usual female jobs when I was growing up. Teacher, secretary, or nurse (those were the three main professions) just didn't do it for me. I wanted to do whatever any guy would perhaps want to do. There was way too much girls are supposed to do this and boys are supposed to do that. I was a rebel. So what did I do? I became a cop. Weren't a lot of gals doing that in the 70s. It was a wonderful career and I can't imagine having done anything else.
