Stereotypes Of Women Today
Gender is defined as “the state of being male or female typically used with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones” (Connell). Society has attempted to define what a man or a woman should be which in turn is reflected in everyday life. Women are supposed to be emotional and they love to wear pink. Men are suppose to be masculine, wear blue, and are the head of the household. These are just some of the stereotypes that plague many of our cultures. These narrow-minded views that are embedded in us from early child development, lead to more detrimental issues that affect women today such as violence.
