Sex refers to the biological category in which an individual belongs to. There are two types: male or female
According to Talcott Parsons, men have the more instrumental role because they financially support the family and are seen as the more authoritative figure.
Mothers are more suitable for the expressive role because they're the ones responsible for emotional support and nurture. Mothers are more likely to take and bring their kids back from school. Plus, they're more likely to take selfies with you!
Families are the primary source of socialization. Because every member of my family, I have a concept of what is expected of me and what my duties/responsibilities are as a daughter/sister.
The media plays a large role in the way women are supposed to be portrayed. There is a highly stereotypical idea as to how she should be. It is clear that women are at a very obvious disadvantage in comparison to men and their expectations.
