Theories of Gender
Development
• Social Learning Theory

• Gender Schema Theory
Social Learning Theory
• Proponents of this theory believe that
parents, as distributors of
reinforcement, reinforce appropriate
gender role behavior.
Cognitive-Developmental

• This is derived from Kohlberg's
speculations about gender
development.
• Children begin the process of
acquiring gender-appropriate
behavior.

What is Gender Stereotyping?
Gender Stereotyping
-is defined as the beliefs humans hold
about the characteristics associated
with males and females.
Problems in Gender Stereotyping

a particular gender have a negative
image.
• When a unique individual is assumed
to have all the characteristics
associated with his/her gender.

• Transitional
Traditional Gender
Ideology

and women sphere is the home.
• The implicit assumption is that men
have greater power than women.
Egalitarian Gender
Ideology
• Maintains that power is distributed
equally between men and women
and that each group identifies equally
with the same spheres.
Transitional
• It is acceptable for women to devote
energy to both work and family
domains but women should
proportionally more responsibility for
the home and men should focus
proportionally more their energy on
work.
Gender and Equality
• Gender Equality
-between women and men is a worthy
goal that is central to progress in
human development.
“The Creation of Patriarchy” by Gerda
Lerner
-gender is the “costume, a mask, a
straitjacket in which men & women
dance their unequal dance.”
“The Gender Question” by Alan Wolfe
-”of all the ways that one rooted than the
way men have subordinated women.”
Gender Inequality
4 themes characterize feminist
theorizing of gender inequality:
Men & Women are situated in society
unequally.

No significant pattern of natural
variation distinguishes the sexes.
All inequality theories assume fairly
easily & naturally to more egalitarian
social structures.
Gender and Power
Gender
-refers to the different ways men &
women play in society, & to the relative
power they wield.
Power
-is a basic fabric of society & is
possessed in varying degrees by social
actors in diverse social categories.
“Essays in Sociology” by Max Weber
-he defined power as the likelihood a
person may achieve personal ends
despite possible resistance from others.
Status resources
Experience
Self-confidence
Determinants of power:
Gender and Education
Investing in Education is seen as one
of the fundamental ways in which nation
states and their citizens can move
toward long-term development goals
and improve both social and economic
standards of living.
