Document Summary

Sex = biological difference with men and women. It"s the people in those positions that become that way, not gender differences, but much of the research starts to break down, there"s much variation in men and women. Interplanetary theory of gender: men are from mars, women are from venus but we all come from earth, anatomy is destiny, your anatomy determines everything in your life, your future depends entirely on your anatomy, science, nature. In schools, women enroll in courses like parenting, knitting, cooking, whereas men enroll in engineering, math, science courses. It affects how we perceive gender is constructed. Solely determined by these unchanging features: selective evidence www. notesolution. com, biology will pick and choose the evidence to back up their claim and ignoring the rest of the evidence, evidence determines gender, social construction of gender relations. Something we learn through childhood, not a biological factor. Schools have specific patterns: military male dominated, marriage male is breadwinner.
