    Study Notes

    Gender Roles and Stereotypes

    • Gender roles refer to expected behaviors, speech, dress, grooming, and conduct based on assigned sex. These are culturally determined and considered acceptable.
    • Gender roles define socio-cultural expectations for men and women in public and private life, based on their assigned sex category (male or female). A person's sex is usually determined by genital appearance at birth.
    • Men are typically expected to be strong, aggressive, and bold, showing less emotion and affection. They are traditionally seen as the protector, provider, and breadwinner.
    • Women are generally expected to be feminine, polite, modest, nurturing, and submissive. They are usually seen as the homemaker, responsible for the reproductive and domestic work within the household.
    • Gender stereotypes are generalized beliefs about attributes or characteristics associated with men and women, or the roles they should fulfill. Stereotypes can be positive or negative.

    Philippine Gender Roles Across Eras

    • Pre-Colonial Era: Men and women had relatively equal status.
    • Spanish Era: Women were subordinate, establishing a patriarchal, enduring social structure.
    • American Era: Gender roles became more fixed or modernized, but patriarchy continued to dominate society.
    • Japanese Era: Gender roles were significantly disrupted by war. Men fought in guerrilla warfare; women served as medical aides and nurses. Japanese occupation also established forced labor.

    Religion & Traditional Family Values

    • Religion, particularly Catholicism, significantly influences gender roles in the Philippines.
    • Patriarchal structure: Catholicism emphasizes traditional family roles, with men typically having more authority.
    • Women are frequently assigned nurturing and domestic roles, prioritizing family over career aspirations.
    • Strong emphasis on marital fidelity and chastity; divorce isn't recognized by the Catholic Church.

    Impact of Gender Equality

    • Traditional gender roles limit women's opportunities in education and employment.
    • Domestic violence may result from certain cultural views that place men in positions of authority.
    • Catholic Church's stance on abortion and contraception can restrict women's reproductive choices and autonomy.

    Challenges & Changes

    • Modernization and education lead to growing gender equality movements.
    • Feminist movements advocate for women's rights and challenge traditional gender roles.
    • Secularization trends influence societies, decreasing reliance on religious influences on social structures.

    The Cry of Balintawak

    • The "Cry" is the beginning of the Philippine Revolution marking the start of Philippine resistance against Spanish colonial rule.
    • Some events associated with the cry include an event where community taxes were repudiated and patriotic cries for Philippine independence.
