Implicit incarnations of gender roles in the contemporary society

Abstract

The positions that men and women are supposed to fill depending on their sex are known as gender roles. Based on the social structure and hierarchy, men and women are assigned certain roles, which leads to stereotyping of genders with rigid gender roles. The patriarchal framework also fuels these gender roles and vice versa. The different explanations of the word "Gender roles" are extracted through an examination of the research articles that were conducted on the topic. This investigation into the younger generation's comprehension of the concept of gender roles that have been established by our society has been carried out to gather information. To accomplish this, an initial survey will be carried out on the population that falls into the age category spanning from 14 to 63 years old. The data is carefully analysed to arrive at a conclusion. A personal reaction that we received from individuals on a socially inappropriate subject also included, albeit in a short form, in order to gain an understanding of how far society has progressed from its earlier stages over the course of the years.
