“SWEET GIRLS AND NAUGHTY BOYS”. AGGRESSION AND GENDER: DIFFERENCES, INTERDEPENDENCE, CONSEQUENCES

Journal Title: Forum Pedagogiczne - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

The article deals with the relationship between aggression and gender, with particular emphasis on gender differences referring to the way in which aggression is shown and to the propensity for violent behaviour it affects. For at least several years, researchers examining gender in society have indicated that human social functioning (i.e. positions occupied, roles performed, status achieved) is determined by the gender to which one belongs. Gender differences generate different types of behaviour, actions and interactions between men and women. As a consequence of these differences, there are different needs, interests, systems of communication and expression, problem-solving and conflict-solving styles, ways of coping with stress. Femininity and masculinity are sociocultural structures in binary opposition to each other, reflected by differences between the ways aggression is released or unloaded
