II。 The Origin of Social Gender and its Definition

2。 1。 The Origin of Social Gender

Men and women are identified by biological sexual characteristics from the very beginning。 The natural physiological differences determine the pision of labor in society and that’s why there must be a difference in that。 For example, men are more suitable for hunting, farming and other outdoor work while women are more suitable for guardian, textile and other fine domestic work。 Hence, these social role which they bear are also established in these distinct physiological differences。These differences are based on social pision of labor。 However, in such a long process of historical development, the gradual socialization and generalization of social pision of labor are built on the physiological differences。 The society has generated a fixed impression that men and women are born to be like that。 What’s more, they turn to impose different requirements and evaluations on sexual difference and finally progress to fixed but distinct patterns of development of the values, moral consciousness, aesthetic standards and other aspects。 And finally it results in inequality between men and women in terms of social status and personal development。 

In the mid-20th century, human society has undergone a major historical turning point, and faced with the disastrous world wars, and extremely fragile ecological environment, as well as looting, conflict and violence。 The international community sublimates a strong awareness of unexpected development。 Thus equality and peace gradually grow into a global theme under the painful past reflection。 来.自^优+尔-论,文:网www.youerw.com +QQ752018766-

According to that, feminist scholars have proposed a “social gender” theory。 In the late 1960s, the concept of social gender and the second wave of feminism appeared almost simultaneously。 Since then, it  no longer represented just a simple word, but at least as an analytical category to explain social femininity composition and is used to analyze the causes of male power and how these male privileges can be maintained from the perspective of gender and mutual relationship。 And thus it finally becomes a central concept in Western Feminist Theory。 

“Social Gender” concept runs throughout all kinds of various schools of feminism。 It is a very important concept and theoretical weapon in woman's liberation movement and has become a core concept of feminism。 In the 1970s, social gender has begun to be referred to a lot in the analysis of gender relations, and has become a strong challenge to the social role of the traditional biological determinism and female social role。  《指匠情挑》中女性角色的批评性解析社会性别视角(2):http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_124608.html
