5 Big Concepts on Gender

Concept 1

All men are the same sex, but they all express gender a little differently. In a group of men, there are as many different versions of gender as there are men.

Concept 2

Gender is learned. It is learned from parents, family, peers, the media and their education.

Concept 3

Gender can change – and can be adopted consciously or unconsciously by men and women. Sometimes people do what they see, and sometimes people decide not to do what they see.

Concept 4

Gender is not fixed in a person’s life. It can change quite radically based on personal experiences and beliefs.

Concept 5

Gender can be a way of achieving status, but it is culturally specific. What once seemed suitable and admirable may now seem silly or unadmirable.
