That's a good question.
I think I chose role models a lot growing up, and probably even today. I had horrendous handwriting, so I'd find someone who's handwriting I admired and work until I could copy it, even if their riding had a leftward slant while mine had a natural rightward slant. I'd watch TV and see what looked like a healthy family and use those as role modeling for parenting.
I guess you could say that's not my own identity, but I'm not so sure. You could also look on it as defining what values or qualities I find valuable and striving to incorporate them.
What women do you think are good wives or good daughters. Is there someone in the movies or on TV? A famous person maybe? Or a friend or one of your parent's friends?
What qualities do you think a good wife or daughter has?
