GENDER AND SOCIETY:
gender is a social concept which help to refers the social and cultural difference a society
assign to people based on their gender aspect. The role of gender, refers to the society
expectation of people behaviours and attitude based on whether they are female and male.
Society created many of term about the female that they are week and not supposed to fight with
anyone. The norms and rule of the society is always braked by many of female, apart from this
the gender and society is a social construction for discrimination (Iacono and et. al., 2016). Lets
think on this and behave as female and male is not etched in stone by our biology but rather is a
result of how society expects us to think and behave based on what sex we are. When we grows
up then we learn these expectation as we develop our gender identity, whether society believes in
the gender and after a time it just a word, and thus this create some sociological issue regards
with the gender in interface with society. These issue which create the dilemma in the
sociological behaviour called the femininity and masculinity. Where as per the context of
sociological theory, femininity refers to the cultural expectation we have of girls and women
