Raising sons who respect women is something that Millennial feminists do by being mindful of their vocabulary. There's no talk of opening that jar of pickles "like a man" or "throwing like a girl." It's not actually super hard to give up ignorant, outdated phrases like these, but the meanings behind them tend to stick if you adopt sayings like these at all. I don't think I've ever heard my husband insinuate that he is stronger than me simply because he's a man in front of our son or otherwise. I guess he just knows better.
