Gender Roles

This video is a portrayal of how people in our society conform to gender roles. A social norm is an accepted way to act within a society, such as leaving a tip for a waiter. Gender roles refer to the accepted different social norms of males and females. This video is funny because people going through the doors took time to stop and go through the door that they identified with the posted gender even though no one was around to make them do it. This shows how our culture will conform to what we think is socially acceptable such as going through the right gender door, even when no one else is around.
