Explain how gender is socially constructed and therefore a process that humans create.

Using examples from the readings by Judith Lorber Night to His Day: The Social Construction of Gender and the Podcast: TED Radio Hour, The Biology of Sex, explain how gender is socially constructed and therefore a process that humans create. Next explain (and provide examples of) how our culture is built around the sexual/gender dichotomy. Do you think we should challenge this dichotomy? Explain why or why not?
