Between Genders
Social Differences Between Genders: Fact or FictionLiving in a society inundated with different gender-related social interaction styles it’s easy to understand why people believe that men and women come from two distinctly different cultures. Gender roles have become learned patterns of behavior that we, as American citizens, define as masculine and feminine. At a young age our society begins to teach children what behavior patterns are acceptable for their social roles. These roles are influenced by numerous factors. Society’s norms, an individual’s culture and socioeconomic background all determine a person’s role in society. It is these factors that give our society a unique array of social identities that are practiced when we interact with one another During my study I observed several different discussions. Included in my surveillance were interactions between same sex, opposite sex and intercultural relationships. In same sex female interactions, girls were more apt to sit across form each other.
