have portrayed characters either limited by gender expectations or acting in gender-specific ways.

discuss how the characters in each are shaped by what it stereotypically means to be a man or woman?

I can't go through each character for you. Certainly Troy's past mistakes and failures greatly influence his outlook on life and his relationship with his sons. He feels blacks will always be limited even though times are changing. Troy wants to reinforce his own pain and negativity by holding his own son back.
