Question 1
Direction: Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
Gender-based roles coincident with sex-based roles have been the norm in many traditional societies, with the specific components and workings of the gender/sex system of role division varying markedly from society to society.
A person's gender role comprises several elements that can be expressed through clothing, behavior, occupation, personal relationships, and other factors. Thus, in many modern societies, one's biological gender no longer determines the functions that an individual can perform, allowing greater freedom and opportunity for all people to achieve their individual potential and offer their talents and abilities to society for the benefit of all.
Gender roles have long been a staple of the "nature versus nurture" debate. Traditional theories usually assume that one's gender identity, and hence one's gender role, is a natural given. The idea that differences in gender roles originate in differences in biology has found support in parts of the scientific community. Due to the influence of (among others) Simone de Beauvoir's feminist works and Michel Foucault's reflections on sexuality, the idea that gender was unrelated to sex gained ground during the 1980s, especially in sociology and cultural anthropology. This view argues that a person could be born with male genitals but still be of feminine gender. Simon Baron-Cohen, a Cambridge University professor of psychology and psychiatry, has said that "the female brain is predominantly hard-wired for empathy, while the male brain is predominantly hard-wired for understanding and building systems." Psychologist Sandra Lipsitz Bem developed the gender schema theory to explain how individuals come to use gender as an organizing category in all aspects of their life. Therefore, individuals process information and regulate their behavior based on whatever definitions of femininity and masculinity the ambient culture provides. Working in the United States, Talcott Parsons developed a model of the nuclear family in 1955. At that place and time, the nuclear family was considered to be the prevalent family structure.
It should be noted that some societies are comparatively rigid in their expectations, and other societies are comparatively permissive. Some of the gender signals that form part of a gender role and indicate one's gender identity to others are quite obvious, and others are so subtle that they are transmitted and received beyond ordinary conscious awareness.
Most feminists have argued that traditional gender roles are oppressive for women. They believe that the female gender role was constructed as an opposite to an ideal male role, and helps to perpetuate patriarchy.
