Promotion of Gender Roles Before Adolescence

Promotion of gender role before teens Jennifer Scanlon analyzed four popular adolescent girl board games in her article "Boys - We: Socialization of board games and teenage girls" Did. She explained the characteristics of each game in detail and concluded that "these gender stereotypes promote passive games, not active games, and skills that do not reach female cognitive skills." . Characters in each game are depicted as roles with limited sex and promote men, ethnicity, wealth, and heterosexual privileges in our society.

According to Jean Piaget, at some point in puberty, gender role has been established. I would like to talk about the role of gender and the possible reasons depicted in today's society. Gender identity must be established in every aspect of every society. At birth, a baby (person) is given a male or female identity. When parents tell them, society sets examples and attitudes of this sex. "Gender includes broad attitudes, behaviors, and social expectations that we gain through interactions and experiences in various environments throughout our lives." Even today's society, the stereotype of gender is still Present, for example, most people associate men with this occupation when considering a doctor. On the other hand, the secretary is often called a woman.

Before puberty, it is a good opportunity to talk about the expectation for sex, the existing friendship, the impact on future relationship. Accepting gender stereotypes and roles can have long-term adverse effects on children's beliefs and future actions. For example, in a survey of children aged 12 to 18 years, research conducted on young people aged 9 to 11 in Australia understands the culturally recognized sex role and the dynamics of the related forces it was done. But it is clear that young people accept these stereotypes and do not know when stereotypes will affect their behavior and choices. Therefore, conversations over gender stereotypes are most effective with parental support, such as parents who can help young people understand the identity, relationships and influence of decision-making.
