Presentation transcript:

 MEN ARE: › Masculine › Dominant › Strong › Aggressive › Intelligent › Rational › active (do things)  MEN LIKE: › Cars › getting drunk › casual sex with many partners  WOMEN ARE: › Feminine › Submissive › Weak › Passive › Intuitive › Emotional › communicative (talk about things)  WOMEN LIKE: › Shopping/Make-up › social drinking › committed relationships

› Sex refers to a person’s biological sex: whether they are male or female. › Gender refers to the role or behaviors a person has been socialized into according to their sex, whether they are masculine or feminine. › Gender socialization is important in determining our beliefs about acceptable behaviors for males and females.

 Sometimes this begins before birth : › families will purchase gender-typed clothes, toys and nursery decorations.  After birth: › children are spoken to differently › boys are played with more roughly › household chores are distributed differently › given different rules (curfew)

 During school years, peers are more socially accepted by their peers when they conform to gender stereotypes.

 Male peer groups place more pressure on boys to do “masculine” things while female peer groups place more pressure to do “feminine” things.  There are differences in how these are perceived if they do the opposite (girls in jeans playing soccer vs. boys in dresses playing hopscotch)

 Sex segregation in organizing students- competition between males and females.  When complaining about sexual harassment, teachers may take a “boys will be boys” attitude.  Textbooks omit or minimize the contributions of women. When they were represented, it was in stereotypical roles.

 The media have a unique ability to shape our ideas about gender.

 Women are under represented in both adult and children television programming.  When women are represented as having careers or professions, they may also be portrayed as unable to balance this with the rest of their lives (children/love)  Often depicted as incomplete without a man…Sex in the City

 Advertising: Women are far more likely to be completing domestic tasks (cooking, cleaning, shopping) while men are completing “manly” tasks (taking care of yards, cars or playing games).
