Stress and Gender Dynamics
The Equality Perspective
Stress can affect gender roles and equality perceptions by influencing stereotypes, shaping gender identity, and impacting social expectations. In the U.S., individuals may experience stress-related pressures related to gender norms.
To promote gender equality, practice stress management techniques such as gender awareness, advocacy for inclusivity, and supporting diversity initiatives. Addressing stress fosters a more equitable society and promotes respect for diverse gender identities.
