Yin-Yang

The yin-yang symbol has been around for a very long time.  The yin is considered to be female and it embodies feminine traits, whereas the yang is male and it embodies masculine traits.  One cannot exist without the other because the two halves are connected to form one whole. It is symbolic of the gender in China, half female, and half male.  I would introduce the symbols to my students and we will talk about the various parts of the symbol. Ultimately, I would like them to understand that both genders are needed in order for harmony to be achieved.
