Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gender role socialization is the process by which social institutions (such as family, media, education, etc.) shape expectations of acceptable behaviors for men and women. This can include expectations around career choices, household duties, and social interactions.

B is incorrect because gender role socialization is a societal process that can influence legislation, but it is not directly related to anti-discrimination or equal pay laws.

C is also incorrect because gender role socialization often reinforces traditional gender roles and stereotypes, making it less likely for men to pursue non-traditional jobs.

D is not a correct answer because only A is the correct statement.

E is not a correct answer because there is a correct statement in the question.
