RE: The Anthropology of Sex and Gender - Part 1 : Introduction

in #anthropology7 years ago

Great explanation of the differences between sex and gender!
At the end of the day, the characteristics that we attribute to the gender "male" or "female" are just a social structure made by society... while sex is defined by science, even though sometimes science has a hard time defining them

Understanding how gender is constructed is not just about the understanding of sociocultural roles; it involves understanding who has power in society, how they use it and what we can understand about the society.

PS- i'm also waiting for a better explanation on this, waiting for the next post
