what does everyone else think of the gender topic?

Ask me anything and I will answer your questions to the best of my ability .

I've got one for you. With Kohlberg's gender constancy thing, Bem argued gender development was down to genetalia rather than gender constancy, and then did a study, but im unsure whether or not that study backed up what bem said or not?

I am not all that familiar with that particular study, as it's not in the Nelson Thornes books, but having said that; it would make logical sense if what she (bem) researched be in support of he hypothesis.

Let me fill you in. Bem says it's genital knowledge rather than gender constancy which is the main thing for gender development. Did a study showing children to identify a toddlers sex first when naked with female genitalia and then when dressed like a boy then a girl (appropriately, the other one isnt). Then found 40% of the children could conserve gender. 77% failed genital knowledge test.

what do you think?

If anyone has a clue on what the social cognitive theory with modelling, enactive something and something else is, I'd appreciate it if they could fill me in ... thanks.
