I have a new theory. gender is socially constructed. whats do you think?

Question

i is genuis. i only ask to see if you know too

Answer 1

Not new, not correct. For example, no society thinks of women as uncommunicative, or men as empathetic, or women as great leaders, or men as multi-taskers.

To deny that men and women really are different (statistically) can only be for some supposed social good. For the life in me I just don't see the benefit, but in any case, it's not as if anyone really believes that the sexes differ only in plumbing (despite what some people may say).

Answer 2

That's not new to me.

Answer 3

Need a date for the prom?

There's 3 million women that look just like you who do.

You're in luck.

Talk about a match made in heaven.

Hey, I know you.....You're Napoleon Dyanmite

Answer 4

That is definitely not a new theory.  However, yes, I agree that gender is socially constructed.  It is s*x that is biological.  Also, gender is not male vs. female, but rather a continuum from "maleness" to "femaleness".

Answer 5

'i is genuis' ? I have a new theory. You should redo your grammar lessons. Repeat school.

Answer 6

Negative.  Some aspects might be but for the large part it is not.

Answer 7

No - Boys have a p***s, girls have a v****a.

Nice ghostbusters shirt though.

Answer 8

It's not a new theory idiot.  Did you go to college?  Did you ever take a psychology class?  

Gender identification is a mix of naturally occuring chemical differences in the brain but also has a lot to do with how that baby is recieved and treated by society.  Dress a baby in pink and they get treated differently then a baby dressed in blue..this affects how the infant percieves his/her place in society and how he/she should act/look.

Answer 9

to an extent yes.

Answer 10

It's not new some psychologists and sociologist have known for generations. It's obvious when you look at different cultures whrere the roles are reversed.

Answer 11

Gender: the behavioral, cultural, or psychological traits typically associated with one s*x. Not new, and not that funny either.

Answer 12

Irrespective of what people may make you believe, its neither new, nor correct.

Answer 13

I love your t-shirt, geek.

Answer 14

I think that gender is generally natural but the details are socially constructed.

Answer 15

Keep trying you just might score; by the way that's nothing but feminists (strength) babble.

Answer 16

You are a perfect feminist. From the 70s mind you.

Answer 17

Nah..  I disagree.

Answer 18

Not new and not correct in my opinion.

Answer 19

of course it's social constructed.

Answer 20

What do I think?

I think that's the worst theory I've ever heard.

Answer 21

It's almost as brilliant as my new theory that the earth is round instead of flat.

Answer 22

Some of it is, and some of it isn't.  Most of it is though.

Gender and s*x are two different things:

p***s and v****a fact~s*x

Feminine and Masculine labeling~Gender

Answer 23

What I am fascinated about in this matter is not that so much of whom we believe we are is a social construct imposed upon us through acculturations but is it possible to BE without ANY acculturations?  It's not just gender acculturations we pull down over our heads like icky snakeskins.
