Members of Society: Learning the Social Meanings of Gender”, Aaron H. Devor discusses how he believes that society is what shapes what we believe about gender. What we are told about what makes us male or female, according to Devor, is what determines what gender we determine ourselves to be.
Based on his research, Devor came to the conclusion that children “often believe that people may change their gender with a change in clothing hair style, or activity” showing that how we dress and what we do is how children learn to identify different genders
