In a patriarchal system, men hold all positions of power and authority in both the family and society. They make all decisions and are considered superior. Women have submissive roles and are not allowed to demonstrate independence or suggest changes to the social order. The system focuses power and uplifting men through values, rituals, traditions, laws, and institutions while oppressing women and telling them from birth that they are inferior and controllable.
This document summarizes research on perceived differences between male and female brains and behaviors. It discusses common stereotypes that males are more logical/independent while females are more emotional/relationship-focused. Surveys found most people believe males are smarter but females believe they are smarter. Activities like sports are often seen as masculine while nurturing roles are seen as feminine.
The document discusses gender roles and the division of labor across cultures. It defines sex as biological attributes and gender as cultural attributes derived from biological differences. While male dominance was once widely assumed, recent research finds this is problematic and more statistical than absolute. The document examines cases where women have significant influence, such as the !Kung and Iroquois, and considers explanations for gendered divisions of labor including compatibility with childcare and male expendability, noting no single explanation applies universally.
This document provides information about gender and sexuality from a biological and social perspective. Biologically, sex is determined by anatomy, chromosomes, hormones and can be male, female or intersex. Gender refers to social and cultural roles and expectations of masculinity and femininity that are distinct from biological sex. Sexuality encompasses sexual orientation, acts, meanings and drives that are influenced by social and cultural factors. Theories around essentialism view gender differences as innate while social constructionism sees gender as a social construct.
Gender stereotyping refers to overgeneralizing the characteristics of men and women based on their sex. It involves associating certain behaviors, attributes, and roles with a particular sex. There are two main types of gender stereotypes: masculinity, which refers to male traits and roles like being dominant and earning income, and femininity, which refers to female traits and roles like caregiving and less decision-making power. Gender stereotyping is seen in physical appearance expectations, domestic behaviors, occupations, and personality traits assigned to each sex. For example, women are expected to be slim, grow their hair, cook and raise children, work in caring roles, be passive and clean, while men are expected to be tall and strong, earn
This document discusses definitions related to gender identity, gender expression, sex, and sexual orientation. It notes that gender identity refers to one's internal sense of gender, which may differ from their sex assigned at birth. Sexual orientation refers to romantic or sexual attraction toward other people and exists on a spectrum. The document emphasizes that major medical and mental health professional organizations do not consider homosexuality a mental disorder and that efforts to change sexual orientation through conversion or reparative therapy have been found ineffective and potentially harmful.
This document discusses gender and sexuality from multiple perspectives. It defines key terms like sex, gender, gender identity, sexuality and queer theory. It also outlines differences between sex and gender as well as issues still facing the LGBTQ community such as prejudice, equal rights and group identity.
This document discusses gender, sexuality, and sexual rights. It covers several key topics:
1) Gender and sexuality are influenced by many social and cultural factors and norms around them can cause suffering if people's sexualities do not conform or fit into limited channels.
2) A sexual rights framework promotes justice around sexuality and gender, including the right to pursue safe and pleasurable sexual lives.
3) Movements have advocated for greater recognition of sexual rights through international agreements, but political and cultural opposition remains in some contexts.

The document summarizes 6 concepts that inhibit the development of a radical theory of sex: 1) Sex essentialism views sex as determined by biology alone rather than being social/historical. 2) Sex negativity views sex as inherently dangerous/negative. 3) The fallacy of misplaced scale treats small sexual differences as major threats. 4) Acts are hierarchically valued with reproductive heterosexuality at top. 5) The domino theory fears permitting any non-standard sex will destroy barriers. 6) There is a lack of concept of benign sexual variation and insistence on a single sexual standard. These concepts rationalize privileging some groups while oppressing others.
This document discusses gender roles and inequalities related to sex and age. It explores how societies typically assign different roles and behaviors to men and women, with men often dominating. These roles are influenced by biology but are also socially constructed. Gender inequalities persist in areas like education, jobs, money, religion and politics. However, women's liberation movements have made progress in eradicating discrimination and creating more equality between sexes. The document also examines social aspects of aging like physical, psychological and social aging processes.
The document discusses various topics related to human sexuality and desire, including:
- Biological factors like hormones and arousal, and how they interact with social/cultural influences
- Competing approaches to understanding sexual desire, such as biological/evolutionary explanations versus social constructionism
- How societies construct and control sexuality through norms, taboos, and gender roles
- The influence of culture and environment in shaping what behaviors are seen as normal versus deviant
- Debates around topics like sex education and how much biological hardwiring versus socialization impacts human sexuality
The overall perspective is that both biological and social/cultural factors are important for understanding human sexual desire, and an integrative approach is needed to
This document discusses concepts related to gender sensitivity and gender roles. It defines sex as biological attributes and gender as socially constructed roles and expectations of masculinity and femininity. Gender is a spectrum rather than a binary, and gender roles vary between societies. The text advocates for gender sensitivity by avoiding assumptions and using inclusive language. It provides examples of traditional gender roles and stereotypes, and how socialization through parenting and media reinforce these norms. The document also discusses concepts such as patriarchy, masculinity, and violence against women in the context of challenging gender discrimination and inequality.
This document discusses gender stratification and socialization. It provides information on how gender roles are socially constructed and reinforced through various agents of socialization. While biological sex is fixed, gender roles can vary widely across cultures and societies. Adherence to traditional gender roles can be restrictive and disadvantageous for both men and women. The document examines gender issues through various sociological perspectives including functionalism, conflict theory, and feminism.

This document discusses gender and gender sensitivity. It defines sex as biological attributes while gender refers to social and cultural roles. Gender exists on a spectrum rather than as a binary, and gender roles vary between societies. It also defines terms related to sexual orientation and gender identity. The document emphasizes that language should be inclusive and avoid discrimination. It explores how gender roles and stereotypes are socially constructed and can limit choices. Challenges to stereotypes face criticism. The benefits of gender equality are discussed. The worldwide patriarchal system upholds male privilege through institutions and culture. Masculinity refers to socially-defined male qualities and roles, which can encourage violence and limit empowerment. Moving beyond restrictive roles benefits both men and women.
Gender is a social construct that describes the roles, behaviors, activities, and attributes that a society considers appropriate for men and women. It differs from sex, which refers to the biological characteristics that define males and females. Gender exists on a spectrum, rather than as a binary, and varies across societies and over time. Gender sensitivity aims to reduce assumptions about traditional gender roles and promote more inclusive language. Gender stereotypes socially condition males and females from a young age through toys, social norms, and role models. This impacts career and life choices. Challenging stereotypes benefits both men and women by allowing wider choices. Patriarchal systems and institutions uphold male privilege and subordinate women through various means. Concepts of masculinity and femin
This document discusses the differences between sex, gender, gender identity, and sexual orientation. It defines sex as one's biological status as male, female or intersex based on physical traits. Gender is defined as the social and cultural roles associated with each sex. Gender identity refers to one's internal sense of gender, which may or may not align with their sex assigned at birth. Sexual orientation describes one's emotional and sexual attraction to other genders. The document notes that while sex traits are universal, gender roles can vary significantly across cultures.
Gender roles refer to the expectations of how males and females should behave and the responsibilities assigned to each in a society. Gender roles are learned and can vary across cultures but generally involve divisions of labor, child-rearing practices, and socialization that reinforce the roles. Gender schema theory proposes that children learn about gender norms from their culture and adjust their behavior accordingly, developing cognitive frameworks or "schemas" about what it means to be male or female. These schemas can influence how people perceive themselves and others.
Social Psychology, ch 5 Genes, Culture and Gender by Nouman KhiljiNoman Khilji
Genes and culture both influence human behavior and gender roles. While humans share biological traits, culture shapes how those traits are expressed. Originally Africans, humans migrated with climate changes and adapted to new environments, resulting in skin color differences. Gender roles vary across cultures and change over time as cultures evolve, though biological factors like mating preferences still influence behavior. Both nature and nurture interact to determine human diversity in traits, behaviors, and gender norms in different societies.
This document discusses gender roles and the patriarchy through a sociological lens. It begins by defining sex as biological differences between men and women, while gender refers to societal expectations. Hunter-gatherer societies had relatively egalitarian roles, but the rise of private property, marriage alliances, agriculture and organized religion contributed to the establishment of patriarchal systems where men held power over women. Functionalists view traditional gender roles as natural divisions of labor, while conflict theorists see inequality persisting due to male control of resources. Interactionists believe gender roles are socially constructed through socialization. The document examines how media perpetuates stereotypes to appeal to audiences and promote consumerism, ultimately naturalizing gender roles and hierarchies of power.
1) The document discusses a talk on gender sensitivity given by Mr. Ganga Narayan Jha. It defines key terms like gender, sex, and patriarchy.
2) It explores gender roles and stereotypes that societies impose on men and women. For example, women are often expected to perform domestic duties while men are expected to be breadwinners.
3) The document also addresses how to make society more gender sensitive by challenging stereotypes and ensuring equal opportunities for both men and women.
- Sex and gender are influenced by both biological and social/cultural factors. While biology determines one's sex, gender roles and behaviors are largely learned and can vary significantly across cultures.
- Cultural practices around the world exhibit a wide range in expressions of sexuality, gender roles and relations. Most cultures are dominated by patriarchal systems where men center power. However, alternative genders also exist.
- Political organization ranges from simple band societies to more complex states. Leadership and social control methods vary depending on the type of society, from consensus-based bands to hierarchical states with formalized legal institutions.
This document provides an overview of topics related to educational psychology and the social side of sex. It discusses how culture and nature influence sexuality and gender identity. It examines theories of sexuality and how social factors can determine sexual preferences. It also explores concepts like erotic plasticity, consistency between attitudes and behaviors, and the relationship between sex and prosocial behaviors. Case studies are presented on gender identity and how social groups approach sex and helping behaviors differently.
This document discusses sex and gender. It defines sex as the biological and physical differences between males and females, such as genetic or reproductive characteristics. Gender is defined as the social and cultural roles, behaviors, and identities associated with being male or female in a society. The document notes that while sex is biologically determined, gender is socially constructed and can vary across cultures and over time. It explores various theories about gender roles and inequality between males and females in society.
Sexual Prejudice and Attitudes toward Same-Sex Parented FamiliesPedro Alexandre Costa
This document summarizes a presentation on sexual prejudice and attitudes toward same-sex parented families. It defines key terms like stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination. It also outlines individual differences that are related to higher sexual prejudice like social conservatism, religiosity, and beliefs about the origins of homosexuality. Research finds people evaluate same-sex couples less favorably than different-sex couples as parents and anticipate more problems for children with same-sex parents. Finally, the document discusses the social and psychological impacts of sexual prejudice, including minority stress and reduced well-being and family stability.

The document discusses key concepts related to gender, including:
- Gender refers to the social roles, behaviors, activities, and attributes that a society considers appropriate for men and women. It is distinct from sex, which refers to biological characteristics.
- Gender is socially constructed and varies across cultures, while sex is a biological and physical categorization.
- Patriarchy describes a social system where males hold primary power, and where societies are organized around male authority. It influences the control of women's productive, reproductive, and sexual abilities.
- Gender stereotypes overgeneralize traits based on gender without recognizing individual differences. They can promote inaccurate and simplistic views of men and women.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
2. Thesis: Those of differing genders have
specific roles that they must perform.
– Brief History of gender roles and the recent changes
– Difference of roles people must play based off of race
– How race and gender play into the lives of people
3. Social norms and gender
expectations
– Many religions practice gender segregation and tend to cater the the male view
point and needs rather than the women.
– In traditional synagogues the women would be separated from the men by a wall or
curtain called a mechitzah.
– This was due to the fact that the men were not allowed to pray in the presence of women so that
they won’t be distracted.
– Some more ‘left wing’ synagogues have a shorter mechitzah that the men can see over, but most
traditional ones have the men and women separated by a complete wall.
– In the Islamic faith men and women worship separately in most mosques. Women are also
not permitted to enter a mosque without covering their hair with their hijabs and their
bodies with modest attire.
– Women are not allowed to wear makeup of any kind; perfume, nail polish or basically anything
that can cause sexual arousal or distress for the men.
4. – Clifford Nass, a professor of Human-Computer Interaction at Stanford, conducted a study on gender bias.
– This study was comprised of two lesson plans, one being on “love and relationships” and the other being “physics”.
– These lessons were taught by either a male sounding computer generated voice or a female sounding computer generated voice.
– The participants were randomly assigned a lesson and when asked which voice gave a better speech, even though the
speeches the voices made were the same, there was an almost unanimous opinion that the male voice taught physics
better and the female voice taught love and relationships better.
– Societal norms and gender roles are formed due to the humans brain to pick up on patters and form clear biases
towards our own experience.
– Throughout history men were seen as ruff and tumble. They were the hunter, they were the fighter, they even were
the bread winner. This pattern of men typically doing the “harder” or more physically demanding jobs formed the bias
that men were the stronger sex.
– Women on the other hand historically stayed home and watched the children, they were the gatherer and the
cleaner. This patter set up the view that women were naturally good caretakers and that they are just inherently
weaker then men.
Social norms and gender
expectations
5. – Many cultures have languages that use male and female tenses such as French and
Spanish with the words le and la, le being used for masculine words while la for feminine.
The way these languages were made had a sort of ideal in mind when it came to who
would interact with what the most, feminine words as belonging to women and
masculine as belonging to men.
Social norms and gender
expectations
6. – Since birth people are taught that how they act, what they like, and who they will
become is directly tied to their sex and while this may seem innocent or even
harmless they do have a negative affect on the lives of people.
– Many of these roles say that women are more passive while men are more aggressive,
men should be able to hold their composure extremely well while women should be
emotional and not be able to hide it well.
– If a man is not naturally good at keeping his feelings hidden then he is wrong and needs to stop
being such a wimp, while if a woman is cold and hides her feelings she is wrong and needs to stop
being self-righteous.
– When a person is forced to change who they are for fear of being shamed by those around them it causes
many difficulties and even a type of inner conflict called cognitive dissonance
– Cognitive dissonance: the state of having inconsistent thoughts, beliefs, or attitudes, especially as
relating to behavioral decisions and attitude change.
Social norms and gender
expectations
7. Social norms and gender
expectations
– Gender roles may seem harmless and even practically nonexistent today, but they
have huge negative effects on peoples lives.
– They set up how the house hold is run, with the father being the head of the house and
bringing the food and money home while the mom is the passive house wife who cleans and
cares for the home and the children.
– They affect how a person is raise and how they preserve themselves by labeling their traits
and behavior as male or female typical.
8. Racial Divide
– Racism: prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a
different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.
– Racism claims two things, one being its claim of racial differences in things like
character or intelligence and secondly it asserts superiority over other races in the
favor of one.
– It also seeks to maintain this dominance through a system of beliefs, behaviors, and the
use of policies.
– Many beliefs of those who have racial biases are as followed
– White people are smarter than people of color
– White people make better teachers
– Black people abuse substances more than white people
9. Racial Divide
– White people have many benefits of being white that they themselves may not even notice.
Small things that don’t seem important may actually cause a type of dysphoria for others.
– Dysphoria: a state of unease or generalized dissatisfaction with life.
– These instances is a form of privilege that is afforded to a select number of people solely
based on their skin tone.
– Going to the doctor and getting a Band-Aid that matches your skin tone
– Going to a hotel and having shampoo that matches the texture of your hair
– Having the ‘nude’ color tights or pantyhose actually matching the color of your skin
– Your hair care products are located in the same location as other hair products and not in the ‘ethnic
products’ section
– You can buy travel size bottles of your hair products at most local drug stores
– Store security personnel following you around a store
10. Racial Divide
– In the book written by Ta-Nehisi Coats “Between the World and Me” he talks
about how people of color are constantly used and extorted and he warns his
son of the injustices of this world begging him to protect himself and not allow
people to use him because of his blackness.
– The writer also talks about some of the systematic oppression that he has
experienced in his life.
11. Racial Divide
– Many people of mixed racial backgrounds experience their own form of
discrimination. Some forms of discrimination are as follows:
– No one can tell their race
– People think they are of a different race than they actually are
– They feel like outsiders on their own communities
12. – Intersectionality: the interconnected nature of social categorizations such as race, class, and
gender as they apply to a given individual or group, regarded as creating overlapping and
interdependent systems of discrimination or disadvantage.
– Whenever it comes to people no one is exactly alike, but many people claim that isn’t true.
People lump others into groups and systems to cause a greater understanding or a simpler
understanding of a culture.
– Many people look at the sex of a person and form an initial judgment of the person based on that.
– For instance if the person were a man you would probably think of a strong and stern person while a
woman you would think delicate and caring.
– Another thing people look at to form their initial judgment is a person’s race
– Many people would see a person of color and judge them based on the color of their skin with any number
of stereotypes and when it comes to white people they tend to be judged by the actions and legacies of
the people of the past.
Race and Gender an
intersection
13. – According to an article from opportunity.org named “Perceptions of and by Black
Men” one way to alleviate racial tensions may be to have more contact between
communities.
– An excerpt:
– Positive behaviors toward black people are predicted by racial contact, while negative behaviors
are predicted by aggressiveness and family/peer racial attitudes. Lipset and Schneider, in their
1978 analysis of the Bakke case, and Katz and Hass in their study of “Racial Ambivalence and
American Value Conflict” (1988) found that: Positive attitudes toward black people are based in
humanitarianism (sympathy toward the disadvantaged), while negative attitudes are based in
individualism (self-reliance).The conscious attitudes about racial and ethnic groups reviewed in this
section probably tell only one small part of the story, and subsequent sections (for example,
discussions of personal responsibility and altruism) are highly relevant to attitudes of racial groups
as well.
Race and Gender an
intersection
14. Race and Gender an
intersection
– People from all walks of life experience many things differently, it may be harder
in some places to receive a job solely based on your race or gender than it
would be for someone of another race or gender.
– In the next video aid We get to hear the experience of Angela Yea who is a business
woman in a male dominated field. She is also a black woman and she talks about how
it was difficult for her to get her own segment on the radio.
