WHAT DOES GENDER ROLE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

gender role

Gender role

Gender roles are the social and behavioral norms that are generally considered appropriate by a particular society for either a man or a woman in a social or interpersonal relationship. The perception of gender rolls also include attitudes, actions, and personality traits associated with a particular gender within that culture.. Gender roles are predominantly considered within a family context as well as within society in general and may collectively be referred to as gender stereotypes. There is ongoing debate as to which gender differences in behavior and personality are due to innate personality of the person and which are due to cultural or social factors, and are therefore the product of socialization, or to what extent gender differences are due to biological and physiological differences. Gender roles are culture based, and while most cultures distinguish only two genders, some recognise more. Androgyny, for example, has been proposed as a third gender. Other societies have been claimed to see more than five genders, and some non-Western societies have three genders – man, woman and third gender.
