  • Question 1/10

    Buying blue-coloured clothes for boys and pink-coloured clothes for girls promotes
    Solutions
     The correct answer is A. Gender stereotyping.

    Buying blue-colored clothes for boys and pink-colored clothes for girls promotes gender stereotyping. This practice assumes that certain colors are associated with specific genders and reinforces traditional gender norms and expectations. It implies that boys should conform to masculine traits and girls to feminine traits based on their clothing choices, which can limit their self-expression and restrict their individuality. The color preference is a societal construct and does not reflect genetic characteristics or promote gender fluidity or sex selection.

    Solutions

    Gender stereotyping is the practise of assigning specific features, characteristics, or roles to an individual woman or man solely based on her or their membership in a social group of women or men. Discrimination against women is frequently caused by gender stereotypes. It contributes to violations of many rights, including the right to health, an adequate standard of living, education, marriage and family relationships, work, freedom of expression, freedom of movement, political participation and representation, effective remedy, and freedom from gender-based violence. Lawrence Kohlberg established the concept of gender constancy, which was informed by Jean Piaget's cognitive development theory (1927-1987). In terms of cognitive development, Kohlberg proposed that the establishment of sex roles is largely dependent on a child's understanding that gender remains consistent throughout a person's lifespan. By the age of three, children have figured out whether they are male or female and are aware of the gender of others. They do not comprehend, however, that people cannot change their genders in the same manner that they may change their clothes, names, or conduct at these ages. Kohlberg proposed that children do not learn to behave in gender-appropriate ways until they grasp that gender is permanent, which occurs around the age of seven. All other given options are inappropriate.
