Chapter 7: Inequalities of Gender
Critical Thinking



1.  

What impact might gender role socialization have on men's and women's choices of occupations? Do you see this changing in the future? If so, how?



2.  

Do you agree with the Functionalist, Conflict, or Symbolic Interactionist perspectives with respect to gender? Why? Are these perspectives mutually exclusive or do they explain different components of the same phenomenon?
