Why are boys told not to cry? Why are women expected to be nurturing? And who decides what masculinity and femininity are supposed to look like in the first place?

In this Study Break episode, Cin and Asa unpack gender roles, social expectations, beauty standards, emotional expression, and the pressure people feel to perform masculinity and femininity in everyday life.

This conversation explores how many of the “rules” around gender are socially learned, reinforced through culture, and rarely questioned until adulthood.

A Broad Sex Education is an inclusive sex education podcast covering gender, sexuality, relationships, communication, and culture in a way that actually makes sense.
