Sociology
Chodorow (1978) argued that gender socialization occurred through:
both boys and girls being closely attached to their mothers, but then boys breaking away
girls being attached to their mothers but then breaking away
boys being attached to their fathers and girls to their mothers
both boys and girls being closely attached to their fathers, but girls breaking away
both boys and girls being closely attached to their mothers, but then boys breaking away
Gender socialization is the process by which people learn how to play the gender roles expected of them in a particular culture. Nancy Chodorow was a psychoanalyst who said that this process began in infancy: all children begin with a close, intimate bond with their mothers as the main care-giver, but this develops in different ways. While girls identify with their mothers and learn ‘feminine’ ways of behaving, boys have to break the attachment and associate with men in order to learn how to be ‘masculine’. 160
