Interaction and identity of male and female dominated society

Man always wants more space for himself in society, whereas woman finds herself less satisfied because she is given such social construct that she cannot think big.

In our culture, there is no part of the female body which is not touched, but an ideal and beautiful body image has been created for her. Accordingly, the society tries to maintain it. In the early times, in China, the feet of girls were kept tied, then in the British period, it was considered a social identity for women to cover their hands and every part of the body. The purpose of which was to create an ideal and beautiful woman by the male society. In which his body was seen as an object from head to toe. and was improved through art. This process is being repeated even today, so is the physical and psychological reality of being a woman.

Just as the human body undergoes changes in adaptation to the social environment around it, so too do sex and gender. According to American theorist and gender theorist Judith Butler, “The relation of gender can be seen as the ways of formation of signs, movements and acts determined by society, which in a way create an illusion of self-understanding and natural gender.” It emerges in the form of different social activities and activities. These social activities, activities and activities themselves also create gender. According to the feminist thinker, the human hand is not only the tool of labour but also the origin of labour. That is, human intervention changes the external environment and at the same time changes in it determine the change and its form in the human body. It refers to that both sex and gender are not ‘neutral’. What is rather variable is the gender division predetermined by culture on the basis of male and female body composition. Which fabricates the social idea of femininity and masculinity. In the context of gender, we consider only two possibilities male and female, while there is also a third gender apart from this. One who is intersex has also struggled with the question of gender identity. If we apply the understanding of the interrelationships of biological makeup and culture to gender, then it comes to the conclusion that the body composition of women is also determined by the norms and standards of beauty. As much as the nature of the body is determined by nature, it is also determined by culture. Thus, the existing subordination of women, biological inequality does not arise. Rather it is the result of such social, cultural values and institutions.
