Gender role is defined a set of perceived behavioral norms associated particularly with males or females, in a given social group. Gender role refers to the attitudes and behaviors that are sterotyped to a person. Traditional gender rules include male attraction to women and vice versa. A conflict that has been on going is the non-heterosexuals being not normal. For a gay male relationship it is still assumed that one male is the "wife" figure that handles the chores such as cleaning was assumed to be the one to recieve anal sex. This is not true, in homosexual couples, they tend to have more equal roles. The idea that gay man may be more feminine is produced unconsiously due to being more connected to women during development. In a gay female relationship it's assumed that there is a male figure that acts as more of the provider and more manly. An assumption is that women produce some men type manners and men produce some women type manners. Although it's a mystery how bisexuality is caused but is assumed that they have tendancys for both gender roles like they do in sexuality for both sexes. Although the idea is based on a general idea of homosexuals that feminine gays and masculine lesbians are more noticable than masculine gays and feminine lesbians.
