Presentation of Gender and Sexuality in Two Comic Works.

The issue of gender and sexuality is no child’s play and at such raises different notion for different discourse. Gender roles are the culturally defined behavior deemed appropriate for a man or woman. A role is essentially performative. Sex is biological while gender is socially construed. A male or female is born through chromosal makeup while one is socialized into feminine and masculine role through culture. The link between maleness and masculinity and femaleness and feminity is made to appear unchangeable, constructing power and dominance hierarchies that leave men in control of women and children.
