@splainer I would agree with everything you said but add something:
as children we are "shoehorned" into these roles that society and our parents push upon us. I think the reasons why they bleep out the occupations is that he doesn't want to make anyone feel bad for whatever role they choose. BECAUSE it's OK to be whatever you want to be so long as YOU want to do that. AND you might choose a shitty role, but at least if YOU chose that role,.....you can accept responsibility for choosing that role and deal with the consequences. IF SOMEONE ELSE chose that role for you then you will always be off-kilter because of that.
