The document discusses the concept of gender socialization and its various aspects. Gender socialization refers to the learning of behaviors and attitudes considered appropriate for a given sex. It occurs through manipulation, canalization, verbal appellations, activity exposure, and various agents of socialization like family, peers, school, religion, media, and state. The end result is helping children identify with their gender and acquire the corresponding roles and behaviors that are carried into adulthood.
