Question

The fact that boys typically have less contact with their families, whereas girls maintain a close relationship with their mothers and spend much time with them on a daily basis, reflects a __________ difference between boys and girls during adolescence in traditional cultures.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is: it reflects a gender difference between boys and girls during adolescence in traditional cultures.

Explanation:

Gender differences arise from the fact that women and men are not socialized in the same way in a society, meaning, being born man or woman will define multiple experiences throughout a person's life. Gender socialization begins at a very early age, which is why by the time the person is an adolescent there will be many evident gender differences, like the one mentioned in the question.
