Consider Judith Lorbers article, “Night to His Day: The Social Construction of Gender (Links to an external site.),” which was assigned reading for this module. Carefully address the following two questions:

If you had to summarize in ordinary language the concept of “gender as structure,” what would you say? (How would you explain “gender as a social institution” to a relative or a friend?)
How did Judith Lorber demonstrate the different significance gender categories have for the individual and society? (Hint: It may help to recall Lorber’s discussions of “sameness” and “difference.”)

Your assignment should be a paper 2-3 pages long, not including the required title and reference pages. Adhere to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA (Links to an external site.). Include at least three scholarly sources (you may use the recommended readings) to support your answers. The CSU-Global Library is a good place to find these sources. Remember to use in-text citations as appropriate and to include your sources in your reference page.
