Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Judith Lorber, "The social is the natural" in the sense that gender is constructed through the repetition of social norms and expectations, which create the illusion of natural, innate behaviors and characteristics associated with being male or female. However, these norms and expectations are not biologically determined, but rather socially constructed. Lorber does not state that the social is the unnatural or the heteronormative, so options (a), (c), (d), (e), (f), and (g) are not correct.
