The notion of a sex/gender binary has not been historically around for a relatively long time. In fact, the belief that only males and females should exist in society was not a relevant topic until the late eighteenth century. The Age of Enlightenment paved way for sex dichotomy and was succinctly explained by Harold Garfinkel’s Studies in Ethnomethodology written in 1967. In this seminal text, he creates a summary of the laws of gender that the sex/gender binary heavily relies upon. These laws…
gender in a classroom is high it tells the children the differences between genders are important and should be taken into account in their life. Children choose to play with playmates of another sex less when exposed to a room with high gender salience. By choosing to not play with children of another sex children are not learning how to interact with half of the population.

integrated over time, others remain highly concentrated by either men or women. Women are overrepresented in teaching and nursing, while men dominate the industries of business, engineering, and construction (source 1). This occupational segregation by sex is widespread in all industrialized nations and serves as an index of dissimilarity. Available research has documented an inverse correlation between occupational segregation and wages: a decline in occupational segregation marks an increase…
both men and women are built the same way. Although some may believe in Man being on top, women can do anything a man can do. Over 1 billion years ago, sex evolved into single-cell organisms. One eukaryotic cell would come in contact with another eukaryotic cell and if that cell responded, they would open their nuclei and swap chromosomes. “Sex evolved because combining the DNA of two organisms promoted better genetic fitness than one organism’s DNA replicating itself over and over (a.k.a.,…
