Gender is socially defined. Masculine and Feminine



Boys will be boys. They play sports, love dirt, and do not play with baby dolls.



Girls are sugar and spice and everything nice. They play house, wear pink, and play with baby dollsWhat is the difference between sex and gender? Can you give me 2 examplesof gender expectations in our culture?sex is biological: a penis=man, a vagina=woman

gender is your mindset. ex: a man can have a penis but more closely identifies himself as feminine.



examples: a woman is supposed to have long flowing hair (not short like a man's). a man is not supposed to cry.
