Question

. Why do you think gender stereotypes are so inflated compared with actual gender differences? Why do you think people continue to believe in such strong gender differences despite evidence to the contrary?

Answer 1

Explanation:

This is a question that must be analyzed historically in order to be better understood from my point of view. Analyzing, throughout each period, the positions of men and women in society, it is possible to understand how gender stereotypes were being formed and conceived as a natural way of representing the characteristics of each gender.

Despite the fact that society is undergoing positive change with regard to the reduction of sexist thoughts and the inclusion of women in important positions in the labor market, in politics and in science, there is still a patriarchal conception built in society that differentiates men and women according with gender stereotypes used to be able to reaffirm what is the role of each in social life.
