Why is defying gender
roles so threatening to
some people in
society?

To some people they discriminate this off of religion. Like christians, they follow the rule of Adam and Eve; the first man and woman on earth. They ONLY focused on Adam and Eve. I would think there were more people on earth back then; not just Adam and Eve, with more than one gender but I guess according to christians, this didn't exist. So christians today only follow stuff from a book that was written thousands years ago. once a person doesn't follow that path of god, they are now a person of the devil. Now taking religion out of it, this is taught through a family or friends perspective and sometimes society on why this is wrong
