Gender roles | Psych Film Fest 2023 | SDSOS NMIMS

In our society, there are standards for how men and women should look, act, and portray themselves. The excess of stereotypical behaviour that is considered to be feminine is known as hyperfemininity. Hyper-masculinity, on the other hand, is the exaggeration of stereotypical behaviour that is thought to be male. Relationships between people might be challenging as a result of these distorted gender preconceptions. Excessive gender stereotypes are damaging because they prevent individuals from completely expressing their thoughts and feelings. By proposing an experiment with various generations that would be Gen x, Gen y, Gen z, and Gen alpha, we hoped to test these misconceptions. In order to find participants for each category generation, we called on and searched for various people fulfilling the requirement. Each one of them was asked to respond to each question honestly and to depict their responses in their drawings. We intended to demonstrate how traditional gender roles are still seen as discriminatory by conducting an experiment on the subject, as well as how people still associate these stereotypes with modern society. We intended to demonstrate how gender roles affect a variety of human behaviour, frequently influencing what people dress and the careers they pick
