Activism Action Plan

I will be editing an existing page on gender performance: Gender performativity. The reason I will be doing this is that the page has various issues and I think this is an important and current topic in contemporary sociology as well as in contemporary life. Gender is such a big topic in today's society and has gained a lot more exposure. I think it is important that the information be easily accessible and clear, while also displaying all the relevant information. In keeping with the notability requirements, this is a topic that includes information that can be verifiable with reliable sources. It is also a topic that has significant coverage and recognition.'''[I AGREE. SURPRISING HOW MANY SOCIOLOGY CONCEPT PAGES ARE POOR OR MISSING]'''

The following is a checklist for revisions to be published:


 * Neutral point of view
 * No original research
 * Use of reliable sources
 * Avoid plagiarism, use appropriate referencing
 * Avoid conflict of interest
 * write in a formal and encyclopedic manor, be concise
 * Use a short title and have a good lead section

The research tasks I will engage in are searching google scholar for relevant resources that add to the information already present in this article. Also search for any information that should be added to this article to give a clear and full representation of the topic '''[don't forget you can use non digital sources too and good quality media as well as scholarly articles. be good if you could locate some Australian sources!! make a change from all the US ones ....]'''

Minor edit:

Original

The social construction of gender is a theory in feminism and sociology about the operation of gender and gender differences in societies. According to this view, society and culture create gender roles, and these roles are prescribed as ideal or appropriate behavior for a person of that specific sex.

The social construction of gender is a theory about the operation and performance of gender, and gender differences in societies. This theory is most common in fields of feminism and sociology. According to this theory, society and it's culture creates gender roles. These gender roles are then prescribed by the society as the ideal or appropriate behaviour for a person of each sex. The gender roles are enforced as social norms. [excellent]
