Ideology+Gender ♂♀

We discussed the meaning of ideology and gender in our class, I discovered that idelogy means ideas that go with a character, expectations and actions or a way of discussing a group. Ideology can also come in different forms, for example: messages. We also discussed the expectations of females and males. We had to line up in order of most masculine and most feminine. Most masculine meant that they would have a 'male' attitude, like swearing a lot, wearing clothes that may or may not be allowed or being quite tall and having hobbies such as playing football or rugby. The typical female wearing maybe feminine colours like pink, having nails painted, gossiping or the typical hobbies of shopping.
This is what society expects females and males to act in order to fit in and not judged.
