Question

__________is a social construct which explains the differences between men and women and their decided or fixed roles. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The social construction of gender is a theory in feminism and sociology about the manifestation of cultural origins, mechanisms, and corollaries of gender perception and expression in the context of interpersonal and group social interaction. Specifically, the social construction of gender stipulates that gender roles are an achieved "status" in a social environment, which implicitly and explicitly categorize people and therefore motivate social behaviors.[1]

An intimately related, though notably distinct matter in feminist theory is the relationship between the ascribed status of biological sex- male and female; and their achieved status counterparts in gender- masculine and feminine.
