    By evaluating the various structures and its functionality it provides, the function of gender contributes to the stability of our society. Specifically gender roles assign the responsibilities of women and men. In social role theory the gender stereotypes arise from historical occupations such as men being the breadwinner and women being the homemaker. In order to be in harmony with this perspective it is that women and men become active participants of these gender stereotypes in the workforce (Rudman & Phelan, 2010, p. 192). Stereotypes are learnt through the socialization process and influence stereotypical characteristics and roles. Interestingly enough Rudman & Phelan (2010) suggest that women exposed to non-traditional gender occupations,…

    Gender Stereotypes

    • 1171 Words
    • 5 Pages

    One of the many ways in which the media treat men and women differently is in the way that the news covers female and male politicians. Female politicians in general receive less coverage than male politicians, and the coverage they do receive is often more focused on their appearance and personal life rather than their policies and positions. When people see female politicians being treated this way by the media, they may begin to value women less in leadership positions. Media can have a huge influence on people’s views and opinions, and seeing women in leadership positions, or running for leadership positions, being belittled trivialized can be very damaging to society’s view of female leaders. This coverage can also have a negative effect…

    The Five Sexes, Revisited

    • 542 Words

    The reading The Five Sexes, Revisited was about the misrepresentation of today’s two-sex system in society. The central issue Anne Fausto-Sterling addresses is that there are people born outside of dimorphism and most people do not understand this (pg. 122). The most important point or central argument is that the two-sexes, male and female should no longer be accepted. Instead, five-sexes should be accepted: male, female, “herms”, “merms”, and ferms” (pg. 121). An important fact the author makes is, “…we calculated that for every 1,000 children born, seventeen are intersexual in some form” (pg. 122). This bit of information proves that there are infants born between the sexes male and female. It is important for people to realize that mixed babies are in existence. Anne Fausto-Sterling also shares a story of a born intersexual. “Consider for instance, the life of Max Beck: Born intersexual, Max was surgically assigned as a female and consistently raised as such. Had her medical team followed her into her early twenties, they would have deemed her assignment a success because she was married to a man. Within a few years, however, Beck had come out as a butch lesbian” (pg. 124). It all comes down to society and this story proves it. If the world were more open to these sex issues, then we would not have these issues in the first place. In Max’s case, being born intersexual would not have been an issue in Max’s life. Instead, the doctors chose Max’s sexuality without any consent from Max. Another interesting fact that Anne Fausto-Sterling uses to back up her argument is “The logical structure of the commonly used terms “true hermaphrodite,” “male pseudohermaphrodite” and “female pseudohermaphrodite” indicates that only the so-called true hermaphrodite is a genuine mix of male and female…Because true hermaphrodites are rare – possibly only one in 100,000 – such…

    In the texts of ‘The Chrysanthemums’ by John Steinbeck, ‘Folk Hero’ by H.M. Tolcher and ‘Ode to Barbie’ by Romanie Moreton the concept of gender is supported and challenged in a variety of ways. Men are typically portrayed as hard-working, rebellious and fulfilling a job in a male dominated profession. In contrast to this, females are depicted as fragile and emotional, having the role of the housewife. The authors of the following texts have made use of descriptive language, imagery, figurative language and many more to communicate the themes of relationships, betrayal and identity. More so each author represents their perspective of gender, based on stereotypes.…

    Stereotypes play a major role in our society, whether it may be cultural, racial or gender stereotypes. They shape individuals and influence them with specific characteristics and attributes even if those assumptions are inaccurate. Similarly, this trend is creeping up on how we deal with technology as it has been associated with these gender stereotypes. For instance, consider the HDMI cables that one would use to connect devices to the television—there is a male part/input and a female part/output (Module 9). Throughout the industrial revolution till today, women’s contributions to technological development has been undermined and underestimated. Throughout the 20th century, from cars to computers, machines that were complex and sophisticated…
