What is Gender

Hello,

So I've created this blog to talk about gender talk and gender tension and where better to start with some definitions.

What is gender?

Gender refers to the social attributes and opportunities linked with being male, female or other, and the relations between those of the same and opposite genders.

What is gender talk?

Gender talk is the way in which men and women express themselves. In other words how each gender communicates verbally or physically through body language. This can vary depending on whether they are talking to someone of the same gender or someone of a different gender.

What is gender tension?
Gender tension is the stereotype associated with any gender. Their are many different forms of gender tension for each group; 

  • males are aggressive
  • females are delicate
  • gay men are flamboyant.
