Gender Script
A gender script is a concept in Women's studies, feminist studies that refers to structures or paths created by societal norms that one is supposed to follow based on the gender assigned to them at birth. The American Psychological Association defines gender script as "a temporally organized, gender-related sequence of events". Gender script is also closely related to the concept of Gender role, gender roles. Gender scripts have been called a demonstration of the social construction of gender. Concept Feminist theorist Judith Butler writes gender should not to be considered "a stable identity or locus of agency from which various acts follow" but that gender is an identity shaped by "a stylized repetition of acts." This notion of gender as performative acts relates to gender script as gender script determines the necessary acts required to be a man or a woman. Butler also notes, "that the gendered body is performative suggests that it has no ontological status apart from the various ...

Feminism And Society
Feminism has affected culture in many ways, and has famously been theorized in relation to culture by Angela McRobbie, Laura Mulvey and others. Timothy Laurie and Jessica Kean have argued that "one of eminism'smost important innovations has been to seriously examine the ways women receive popular culture, given that so much pop culture is made by and for men." This is reflected in a variety of forms, including literature, music, film and other screen cultures. Women's writing Women's writing came to exist as a separate category of scholarly interest relatively recently. In the West, second-wave feminism prompted a general reevaluation of women's historical contributions, and various academic sub-disciplines, such as Women's history (or herstory) and women's writing (including in English) (a list is available), developed in response to the belief that women's lives and contributions have been underrepresented as areas of scholarly interest. Virginia Blain et al. characteriz ...

Sexual Script Theory
Sexual script theory is a sociological theory that states that all social behavior, including sexual behavior, is socially scripted, meaning that humans follow approved norms about how individuals in a relationship may embrace one another, embody, and react to each other via the process of socialization. Sexual script theory was introduced by sociologists John H. Gagnon and William Simon in their 1973 book '' Sexual Conduct''. According to Gagnon and Simon, sexual scripts are guidelines for appropriate sexual behavior and sexual encounters. Sexual behavior and encounters become behavior that is learned as well as instinctive. Each partner in a consensual sexual encounter behaves as if they were an actor following a script, rather than acting on impulse alone. Therefore, people in a relationship may draw upon this idea when thinking about their own sexual experiences or when participating in sexual acts themselves. Overview Research on sexual scripts and sexual script theory ...

Gender Schema Theory
Gender schema theory is a cognitive theory to explain how individuals become gendered in society, and how sex-linked characteristics are maintained and transmitted to other members of a culture. The theory was formally introduced by Sandra Bem in 1981. Gender-associated information is predominantly transmuted through society by way of schemata, or networks of information that allow for some information to be more easily assimilated than others. The theory argues that there are individual differences in the degree to which people hold these gender schemata. These differences are manifested via the degree to which individuals are sex-typed. Sex typing Sex typing is the practice of assigning certain skills and personality attributes to one of two sexes within the binary classification of gender. Thus, those skills and personality attributes are classified as either feminine or masculine. According to the gender schema theory, a child undergoes sex typing of themselves as they formula ...

Non-binary
Non-binary or genderqueer Gender identity, gender identities are those that are outside the male/female gender binary. Non-binary identities often fall under the transgender umbrella since non-binary people typically identify with a gender that is different from the Sex assignment, sex assigned to them at birth, although some non-binary people do not consider themselves transgender. Non-binary people may identify as an intermediate or separate third gender, identify with more than one gender or no gender, or have a Genderfluid, fluctuating gender identity. Gender identity is separate from sexual orientation, sexual or romantic orientation; non-binary people have various sexual orientations. Non-binary people as a group vary in their gender expressions, and some may reject gender identity altogether. Some non-binary people receive gender-affirming care to reduce the mental distress caused by gender dysphoria, such as gender-affirming surgery or Transgender hormone therapy, ...
