Paper Summary:
This paper examines psychological and sociological evidence gathered over the last several decades pertaining to the roles that biology and socialization play in the formation of gender roles. Studies showing how hormones, brain differences, and physical differences between males and females shape the traits associated with their genders. Sociological theories are examined that point to socialization playing a significant part in the development of a child's gender identification. Theories of transgendered individuals existing as a separate sex from males and females are touched upon. Both biology and socialization are demonstrated to shape gender roles, with a greater part played by biology.More papers on Biology and Gender Differences:
