While teaching the concept of occupation, Monica showed flash cards of both men and women in non-traditional roles. This strategy will help in- Correct Answer Promoting gender stereotype flexibility

The concept of occupation can be defined as the activity which a person carries out to earn a livelihood.

  • For many decades, both men and women have engaged themselves in certain occupations to earn a livelihood.
  • But society has set some stereotypes which perceive certain roles that one type of gender can do while the other gender is stereotyped for other roles.
  • While that is not the reality, both men and women can take any occupation of their choice and can excel in it.

Key Point

  • The above-mentioned strategy will help in promoting gender stereotype flexibility.
  • It will put women in non-traditional roles and will also promote a sense of gender equality among people.
  • It will also remove the stereotype that certain activities are only meant to be done by men and not by women and vice versa.
  • For example, The teacher can show flashcards where a woman is shown working as a garage mechanic and a man is shown as a flight attendant.
  • Both these roles in reality have a biased gender ratio due to the stereotype that such roles can only be taken up by one type of gender.

Thus, it is concluded that the above-mentioned strategy will help in promoting gender stereotype flexibility.
