Cultural Perspective of Gender Tensions
Cultural upbringing may influence your views, when it comes to what role you play in society based on your gender. Many culture does this not inadvertently but because of there culutre norm they become a custom to certain beliefs. Many culture believe the woman should be the one who stay home and take care of the home, while the husband works to bring the money in the home. But the roles has change drastically over the years where this isnt the case anymore. Both men and women share the same weight in society ,when it comes to duties inside the home and outside. Especailly in the western world Women and Men are expected to work to provide for there family virsus maybe 30 years ago. Through the process of Socialization
within the family, in educational institutions and other social spheres, boys and girls are conditioned to behave in certain ways and to play different roles in society. They are encouraged to conform to established cultural norms by being rewarded or punished for their behavior. This was most definitely the fact atleast 30 years ago and even further down the timeline no doubt.
