gender roles arent really manmade, in nature there are "gender roles" which are pretty similar to how i think things should be

Anyone who reads in anthropology and sociology can easily see that gender roles are made by nature
thats what im trying to explain to them, they think im extremely wrong
 
Will you read them tho so I don’t waste my time ?
If you make good points ofc I’ll read,I don’t understand how gender can be viewed as a social construct when it changes between cultures and time periods,while gender does intersect with sex which means it’s influenced by biology it’s not 100% at all.
 
Mirin for atleast siting studies,before I read in your own words why would you say gender isn’t a social construct
Because of the evidence I just listed ? And I have more but those will do. Gender differences are largely rooted in biology and evolution, with some culture modifying

Gender isn’t only based off gender differences tho.Im not claiming both sexes are the same,I’m claiming that gender is based off culture which makes it man made,for example seeing pink as a girl colour.

I literally just said “ with some culture modifying “

Gender being influenced by sex differences doesn’t change it’s a social construct, the same way race is based of differences in phenotypes,it’s still a social construct

That only works if you define gender the same way you define race. a lot of sex linked behaviors, interests, and psychological traits have biological roots as shown in the studies If those traits exist independently of culture then gender can’t be entirely a social construct in the same way that categories like pink for girls are.

All those concepts are packaged together tho to deem something as feminine or masculine,social construct can have some biological play into it.

if biology consistently shapes the traits behaviors and preferences that societies label as masculine or feminine then those categories aren’t being created by culture from scratch The disagreement is really over the word social construct You’re saying gender is socially defined while I’m saying the things being defined aren’t necessarily socially created.

My point is they are largely socially defined,since they change across different places and time periods showing the biological element to not play as huge a role
 
The gender roles defined by nature:

Penis in vagina (optional)
Gender roles always existed in Nature since day one so the group and it offsprings would survive. It's a partnership. People said it's man-made until SHTF badly and all of the sudden the survival instincts might kick in.

You can literally read in the studies that it’s otherwise

feel like its that and

-Men are good at defend against threats (for obvious reasons due to being larger and stronger)

-Women are good at raising children (since they lit grow them inside of themselves)

There is studies to show both,for example Ethan Zell's study and Judith Butler theory.You can also just look at other cultures and histories views on gender which quickly show it’s not as a clear cut as biology

I’m not saying it’s 100% biology I’m saying a lot of exist because of biology and evolution adaptations. Yes cultural influence exists but saying it’s just a cultural construct is crazy

The fact there is a distinction in sex and gender,shows how it’s a social construct.The idea of being less or more of a women or man based on behaviour is not biological since being a woman or man is based on the genitalia you are born with

No. And I’m done arguing cause you keep on repeating the same points in different words just read the studies.

I literally haven’t I’ll read the studies but like most things there are studies on both sides,making it an educated opinion to believe one or the other
