    “An extremely important part of an
    individual’s identity and one that begins at
    least at birth, is gender.”
     Dr. Kenneth Cushner, American Professor
    Human Diversity in Education: An Intercultural Approach
    It is more than just knowing that you are male and female.

    Identification of sex is usually clearly internalized by the age


    of 3, but begins around the age of 18 months.

    Cushner, 2012
    SEX AND GENDER:
    How do They Differ
    SEX GENDER

    • Biological • Socially, culturally and
    • Fixed at birth historically determined
    • Does not change across time • Learned through socialization
    and space • Varies over time and space
    • Equally valued • Unequally valued (masculinity
    as the norm)
    “ Sex is a biological characteristics;
    Gender is a social characteristics.”
    Cushner, 2012
    Gender identity includes knowledge of a large set of rules
    and expectations of what boys and girls should wear, how
    they should speak and act, and their ‘place’ in the overall
    structure of the society.

    Cushner, 2012

    Ruth Hartley notes 4 processes involved in gender
    socialization:
    1. Manipulation- means that people handle girls and boys
    differently as infants.
    Example:
    Mothers tend to use more physical stimulation on
    male infants and more verbal stimulation on
    female infants.
    Boy babies are tossed in the air.
    Girl babies get more delicate handling.
    2. Canalization- means that people direct children’s
    attention to gender- appropriate objects
    Example:
    In the choice of toys, boys are given toy cars and
    mechanics, girls are given dolls and tea sets.
    Toys teach children what their prescribed
    roles in life will be.
    3. Verbal Appellation- telling children what they are and
    what is expected of them.
    Example:

    Brave boy, pretty girl

    Boys don’t cry, girls don’t


    hit playmates
    4. Activity exposure- familiarizing children to their
    gender-appropriate tasks

    Example:

    Girls help their mother with housework.


    Boys are encouraged to play outside the house
    Church
    Gender roles in Christianity vary considerably today as they
    have during the last two millennia. This is especially true with
    regards to marriage and ministry.
    Mass Media
    Media’s sexualization of young female celebrities

    Marketing of unrealistic beauty standards through fashion magazines


    Video games that promote violence and negative stereotypes.

    Music lyrics and music videos that promote negative


    stereotypes and violence
