Gender Roles

This document discusses the evolution of gender roles and stereotypes over time for both women and men. It describes how women were traditionally stereotyped as housewives in the 1930s but began moving into the corporate world in the 1950s. Women have increasingly broken down barriers to show they can achieve anything. Similarly, men were traditionally seen as providers and leaders but now also take on caregiver roles. Gender roles for both women and men have become more flexible and balanced over recent decades.
