This paper explains gender role and its effects on mental and physical health. As a social construct, gender role dictates individuals to adapt to certain behaviour appropriate to a male or female. It reinforces differentiation between men and women, which is evident in reproductive, productive and community-managing roles. Historical evidence exists to show that people defy gender-appropriate roles and take the roles of opposite gender to became transgender. Failure to defy the roles causes unhappiness among individuals and leads them to suffer from "gender diasphoria" or gender identity disorder. In general, the paper argues, gender role instills discriminatory access for women to material and emotional resources, which results in significant health stress for them.

275.17844 The Roles of Biology and Socialization in Gender Differences.
This paper examines psychological and sociological evidence gathered over the last several decades pertaining to the roles that biology and socialization play in the formation of gender roles. Studies showing how hormones, brain differences, and physical differences between males and females shape the traits associated with their genders. Sociological theories are examined that point to socialization playing a significant part in the development of a child's gender identification. Theories of transgendered individuals existing as a separate sex from males and females are touched upon. Both biology and socialization are demonstrated to shape gender roles, with a greater part played by biology.
