    The social construction of gender explains how gender and gender differences operate in societies. Social constructionism determines that society and culture are the source of gender roles, that are prescribed as "ideal or appropriate" for a person of labeled under a specific gender.

    It is less deterministic than structural functionalism, psychoanalytic theory, and conflict theory due to gender roles are built from social conventions, beliefs and behaviors that may influence one another. Also, there are not essentialist categories in the social construction of gender which could be derived from the different societies and cultures.
