Gender Roles in Fairy Tales
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper examining the traditional gender roles presented in the classic fairy tales. Beginning from the observations of psychoanalyst Karen Horney and anthropologist Margaret Mead, the paper is mostly involved with the traditional view of the beautiful princess waiting for the rescue that will come in the person of the handsome prince. The concern with these tales is that they will train young female readers that normal life is that which can be found in the traditional fairy tale, and that they perpetuate traditional gender roles in which women depend on men for their very survival and are unable to think for themselves.

Gender Roles, Organization & Leadership
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper comparing the gender role aspect of three societies. All societies maintain variations of generalities that can apply to many, if not most, other societies, one of which is that males are traditional leaders.

Here, the role of gender as it affects leadership, and to a lesser extent, social organization is examined in and compared among three societies: the Sepik region of Papua, New Guinea; the community of Stinking Creek, Kentucky; and the general society in which we live.

Gender Roles: How They Affect Health
[ send me this paper ]
17 pages in length. The male and female genders bear many differences when it comes to their respective mental, emotional and physical states. Typically – and some say only because of cultural indoctrination – men and women, boys and girls each have their own set of standards by which they live, effectively and ultimately maintaining a certain degree of gender compliance. This separation, however, often results in a literal tearing down of one's defenses, be they mental, emotional and/or physical. Bibliography lists 16 sources.

Gender Stratification in the Canadian Workplace
[ send me this paper ]
A 12 page discussion of the differing social expectations in Canada which result in an unequal representation of women in the professional workplace. Notes that Canada would prefer to import trained professionals rather than take advantage of Canadian women who are interested in entering the professional workplace. Contrasts this difference with the much more progressive workplace atmosphere of Japan and suggests that the cause of these discrepancies lies both in history and in the contemporary Canadian home. Suggests that girls who are provided positive professional female role models will be more eager to pursue professional occupations. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

Gender, Identities, Rights And Citizenship

6 pages in length. The extent to which men and women enjoy equal rights is based upon myriad considerations: cultural components, progressive society, religious beliefs and strength of conviction just to name a few.

Gender/Socially Constructed
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page research paper that examines the concept that gender roles are socially constructed. The terms "gender" and "sex" are often used interchangeably by the public, which implies that the sex of an individual necessarily determines the way that they will behave and that the social norms regarding gender expectations are biologically controlled. Contrasting to this view, social scientists have shown that the only fact that is biologically determined is the ability to be either a mother or a father. Gender, that is, male or female behavioral norms within a given culture, are socially constructed, not biologically determined. If gender roles had a basis in human biology then men and women would behave similarly across culture boundaries and this is not the case. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Gender: Nature Or Nurture?
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Gender issues span a significant range of concerns based upon performance, intelligence and aptitude; however, the very fundamental components of such social struggle stem from whether nature or nurture commands greater credit and why. Patriarchy has long assumed that the male gender is, by nature, regarded as superior over its female counterpart; while this mentality has been somewhat reversed in certain global communities, it still takes precedent in many others that refuse to alter centuries-worth of tradition. Of the myriad occasions for the nature/nurture argument to exist, sports and language represent two where the student might apply a combination of both aspects. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
