Abstract

With changing time the perspective and the outlook towards the gender roles have shifted a lot. Earlier times as patriarchy used to persist in the society superior roles were played by men but with the progression these superior gender roles are becoming less prominent and views towards the traditional roles specification are changing.This study investigates the perspective and attitude towards the gender role of man and women among the generation "X" and generation "Z". Material and method : The sample taken into consideration consists of 60 participants out of which 30 belongs to generation X and other 30 belongs to generation Z. The Gender Role Belief Scale developed by Kerr & Holden(1996) was used for the purpose of data collection. Results: The result suggests that there is no significant difference on the views of gender role beliefs among Gen X and Gen Z. Both are inclined towards traditional gender role beliefs. Concusion: It can be concluded that although there is a huge gap between Gen X and Gen Z there is not significant difference in perception of gender role beliefs. This could suggest that despite the passage of time and changes in cultural and social norms, there may be certain aspects of gender role beliefs that remain relatively stable across generations.
