Females are Becoming Masculine Children learn from their parents and society the conception of "feminine" and "masculine." Much of the conceptions are not biological at all but cultural. The way we tend to think about men and women and their gender roles in society constitute the prevailing paradigm that influences thinking. Masculinity and feminist is a topic that has been debated in our society often, through research as well as in our daily lives. Many wonder what it means to be masculine and feminine. In this paper I will discuss about women’s masculine behavior. First of all, gender roles in Western societies have been changing rapidly in recent years. The changes created both by evolutionary changes in society, including economic shifts which have altered the way people work and indeed which people work as more and more women enter the workforce. Most of the time, pressure brought to make changes because of the perception that the traditional social structure was inequitable. Women have the ability to do most of the work just as any men. Nowdays, you will see women in politics and everywhere. In addition, you will also see many women doing construction; they are not less Kaur/Female than any men. They support their family financially. They are independent in their life; they don’t have to look for their husband support in taking care of their children or any kind of financial help. However, women can show both feminine and masculine traits. For example, when I was younger I loved wrestling. However, if my brother ever wanted to play with Barbies, I do not think society would be as accepting. In general, it seems more socially acceptable for a girl to act like a guy than vice versa. It's ok for a girl to play sports and be a tomboy. In the end, women are becoming masculine because society is accepting it and also it’s worth it. In addition, it is ok for the woman to show masculine traits because they are positive. However, it is not okay for the male to show feminine traits because that is negative. Being masculine nowdays really helps woman to stay independent and support her family by working. This essay is only for research purposes. If used, be sure to cite it properly! |
