Gelatin silver print, 9 5/16 × 5 7/8" (23.7 × 15 cm) The ways we behave and express ourselves are shaped by the cultures in which we participate. Since the mid twentieth century, philosophers, social scientists, and historians have theorized that gender—the roles, characteristics, and activities that distinguish men from women—are not innate but socially constructed. Behaviors thought to be feminine or masculine differ from one culture to another and across time periods. Many artists have used their work to examine, question, and criticize the relationships between gender and society. http://www.moma.org/learn/moma_learning/themes/investigating- identity/constructing-gender
