Gender roles – If men and women are not naturally opposite, then why do they act so differently so much of the time?

Gender Roles course paper:

Chapter 3 of the text essentially stated that women and men are more biologically alike than different (or, not naturally opposite).

Of course, our society often thinks of women and men as essentially different, but biologically, this isn’t the case. So, knowing that, how do we explain that men and women act so differently?

Prompt: If men and women are not naturally opposite, then why do they act so differently so much of the time?

At a minimum, include the following course concepts in your analysis: sex v. gender, socialization, “doing gender”, gender rules, and gender policing.
Use course materials as the core of your analysis—not opinions or anecdotal evidence. Your paper should include references ONLY to our course materials (our textbook, videos, or supplemental readings). You will be graded on the depth of your analysis and inclusion of course materials.

MUST USE PAGES FROM THE BOOK I WILL PROVIDE IN ORDER TO INCLUDE REFERENCES!
