3. GENDER ROLES
A gender role, also
known as a sex role,
is a social role
encompassing a
range of behaviors
and attitudes that are
generally considered
acceptable,
appropriate, or
desirable for a
person based on that
person's biological or
perceived sex.

4. GENDER IDENTITY
Gender identity is the sense of oneself as a male
or female. Gender identity involves more than
the anatomical–it involves the inner knowledge
and outer expression of one's sex.
The dominant view has been that gender
identity resides within the individual, although
more recent views challenge this assumption by
arguing that gender identity is created in the
context of interactions, societal structures.

6. But gender identity is about how you
experience your own gender, despite what
society expects. Your gender can be shown
through your identity (eg. labels,
pronouns), body (eg. appearance) and
expression (eg. how you act, how you
dress).
There are lots of possible gender
identities out there! People can identify
as one of the binary genders, as moving
between genders, as no gender or as
another gender altogether.

7. GENDER DISCRIMINATION
IN FAMILY:
Gender equality begins at
home, and families are at
the front lines of change.
For the next generation,
the examples set at
home by parents, care-
givers and extended
family are shaping the
way they think about
gender and equality.

8. Gender inequality acknowledges
that men and women are not equal
and that gender affects an
individual's living experience. ...
Studies show the different lived
experience of genders across many
domains including education, life
expectancy, personality, interests,
family life, careers, and political
affiliations.

9. GENDER DISCRIMINATION IN
SCHOOL
• Gender Inequality in Education. In
educational institutions, gender inequality
has been experienced.
• Girls have been discriminated against in
terms of various aspects as compared to
their male counterparts. ... The parents at
home and teachers in school need to
provide equal participation opportunities
to girls.

11. GENDER DISCRIMINATION IN
SOCIETY:
• Gender disparity still exists in India. Being born as
women in the Indian society one has to face
gender discrimination at all levels.
• At the household level - females are confined to
the bounds of their household chores, raising
children and looking after families, irrespective of
her education degrees or her job profile.
• At her workplace: women have limited access to
job opportunities and are paid less for the same
work.
TCP PRESENTO 2020, THIAGARAJAR COLLEGE OF PRECEPTORS, MADURAI.
13. General belief
among the people
that education is
necessary for boys
and girls have to
practice household
work than studies.
The attitude
among the people
should change.
Education is the
best way to change
the attitude of the
people.

14. VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN
• Violence against women and girls takes many
different forms, including domestic violence,
sexual assault and harassment, child, early and
forced marriage, sex trafficking, so called
‘honor’ crimes and female genital mutilation.
• It is rooted in the gender inequality that
women face throughout their lives from
childhood through to old age.

16. NEED TO IMPROVE THE STATUS
OF WOMEN
• When a woman can plan her family, she
can plan the rest of her life.
• Protecting and promoting her
reproductive rights — including the right
to decide the number, timing and spacing
of her children — is essential to ensuring
her freedom to participate more fully and
equally in society.
