Guys and girls have different social norms (expectations created by society) that they are ‘supposed’ to follow. For example, young children are expected to wear certain clothes and play with certain toys. At a young age, girls are taught to play with ‘girly’ things like barbies and cooking games while boys are taught to play with things like cars and action figures. These sexist ideologies and norms play a huge role in character development as they allow society to shape boys and girls to act the ‘correct’ way.
