Please fully explain the concept of "gender role socialization," and the associated factors impacting its process and/or outcomes for the developing woman as identified across the life span. Please give two specific examples, fully describing, explaining, and applying class concepts in each example. What are the potential "messages" being conveyed about being a woman in today's society, and how does this reflect societal changes over successive cohorts?

Post a 2- to 3-paragraph response in which you evaluate how the philosophies of women and people of various cultures and races have affected dominant Western philosophies. How are their traditions different from and/or similar to the Western philosophical tradition? Consider whether the emergence of these “other voices” changed the focus of the main philosophical discourse. Why or why not? Support your ideas by connecting them to Interactive Unit content, the survey you completed, or something that you have read, heard, seen, or experienced. Be sure to use evidence to support your claims by citing your source. For example, acceptable citations include “According to the ‘Feminist Philosophy’ link” and “According to a January 5, 2015 article in the New York Times.”
