It's Your Gender Stupid


1.      The bottom line of "Its Your Gender Stupid" is that gender is simple and complex at the same time.  When we say gender each person has relatively the same visual and definition as to what gender means.
Gender is a universal category of people that crosses all languages and cultures.  It may mean male and female (sex) to some while it is also behavior.  There are also social and cultural norms for gender.

Question: Is it possible to not categorize people by a gender? Why are gender norms constructed by colors, etiquette, and public appearance? Even by the things we like and do not like?

  1. Is it possible? yes but being the way our society is we are subject to being categorized. We are categorized in what we make in terms of income for example, upper class, middle class, lower class. We are categorized in how we dress and look. Therefore, it would be extremely difficult to not categorize people by gender.
