Gender dynamics refers to the way in which social, cultural, and institutional factors influence the relationships and interactions between individuals of different genders. This research area examines how societal norms, expectations, and power dynamics shape the experiences and opportunities available to individuals based on their gender. Researchers in this field may study topics such as gender roles and expectations, gender inequalities, gender identity and expression, and the ways in which gender intersects with other social identities such as race, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status. By exploring these dynamics, researchers seek to better understand how gender impacts individuals' lives and how to promote greater gender equality and social justice.
