Gender roles 2025-10-24
Across
- gender roles does not mean denying biological differences or personal preferences. Rather, it means creating a society where everyone can choose their own path freely, without being limited by outdated expectations. Schools and families play an essential part in this process. When parents share household tasks equally and teachers discuss gender stereotypes openly, children learn to value fairness and individuality from an early age.
- centuries, societies around the world have defined what it means to be “male” or “female” through specific expectations and behaviors. Men were often associated with strength, leadership, and independence, while women were connected to care, beauty, and emotion. These traditional gender roles influenced not only family life but also education, employment, and politics. Today, however, these long-standing ideas are being questioned and reshaped, especially by younger generations.
- and popular culture have also played a crucial role in transforming gender expectations. Television series, films, and online platforms now offer a wider range of role models. Female scientists, male dancers, and non-binary influencers appear more frequently in the public eye, giving young people diverse examples of identity and success. Advertising campaigns are also adapting: companies like Dove, Nike, and Lego have started to promote gender equality and body positivity rather than traditional ideals of masculinity and femininity.
Down
- these positive developments, the transition toward gender equality is far from complete. In many countries, women still earn less than men for the same work, and men often face social criticism if they express emotions or choose to stay at home with their children. Gender-based violence and discrimination continue to affect millions of people worldwide. Moreover, stereotypes remain deeply rooted in language and daily behavior—for example, when teachers unconsciously encourage boys to speak up more or when toys are divided into “for girls” and “for boys” sections.
- equality benefits everyone. It allows men and women to develop their full potential, strengthens relationships, and leads to fairer workplaces. The challenge now is to continue the dialogue and ensure that future generations grow up in a world where gender is not a limit but a possibility.
- of the main reasons for this change is education. As more women have gained access to higher education, they have entered professions once dominated by men—such as engineering, architecture, and politics. Likewise, men are increasingly choosing careers in nursing, childcare, and teaching—fields that were once seen as “feminine.” This shift challenges stereotypes and shows that professional skills and interests should not depend on gender.
- we move further into the 21st century, the discussion about gender roles has become more complex, including topics such as gender identity and LGBTQ+ rights. This complexity is a sign of progress: it shows that people are beginning to understand gender as a spectrum rather than a fixed binary. The more we accept this diversity, the more inclusive and creative our societies can become.

CH 6 | WORK AND RETIREMENT IN THE LIFE COURSE 2024-02-08
Across
- In its early decades, Social Security encouraged full retirement by creating financial disincentives to continued employment by taxing earnings of retired workers to “recover” some of the Social Security benefit dollars. This has since changed and now only applies to workers taking retirement before their normal retirement age (NRA).
- The supply of available employees with particular skills and experience.
- Retirement plans that were fully paid in installments from employers that emerged during the Industrial Revolution.
- A set of beliefs emphasizing the importance of productivity through employment that connects work with virtue and is associated with traits and habits like diligence, initiative, industriousness, competitiveness, self-reliance, and deferred gratification.
- Common of the second half of the 20th century, career workers were predominantly full time and had pay and pension incentives to stay with the same employer.
- When the job market is strong, employees have more options available to them and can more readily move into new positions that pay more or provide better benefits
- When individuals retire before their NRA but then, most often out of necessity,
- The number of years that workers have been with their current employer.
- Incentives to make a pension more attractive and encourage “voluntary” retirements among employees are sometimes offered by companies when they need to reduce a workforce suddenly.
- Passed in 1967 with amendments since then, this law prohibits the use of age in hiring, firing, and personnel policies for workers over 40.
- These are jobs people take up after retiring from a primary job, commonly in the public sector (e.g., education, healthcare, social services). These tend to be high in personal meaning and make meaningful contributions to society.
- The patterning of employment across the lives of individuals. While our economy is based on a traditional model of this, it is largely unrealistic for most workers today.
- This refers to exceptions to mandatory retirement, which is prohibited by the ADEA, on the grounds that age has a predictable effect on one’s ability to perform adequately and that the consequences of poor performance are potentially devastating (e.g., airline pilots (age 65), air traffic controllers (age 56, with exceptions up to 61), and federal law enforcement officers, park rangers, and firefighters (age 57).
- When an employer makes decisions on the basis of age that disadvantage older workers.
- Refers to the group of employees working under contract for temporary and often short spells of work (weeks or months to years) rather than being hired permanently.
Down
- The proportion of a population that is employed (or seeking employment) at a given time; this rate indicates the prevalence of retirement or other nonemployed statuses.
- Developed in 1961, Robert Havighurst argues that individuals ought to replace lost roles to stay active which supports aging well and life satisfaction.
- Posited by Elaine Cumming and William Henry in 1961, this theory proposed that the process of disengagement—an inevitable, early retirement incentive programs rewarding, and universal process of mutual withdrawal between the individual and society with advancing age—was normal and expected. This theory posited that an orderly disengagement process was beneficial and functional, for both the aging individual and the society, minimizing the social disruption that might otherwise be caused at the older person’s eventual death.
- Often presented with either/or options by their employers, workers make a choice about continuing their employment based on a multitude of factors (e.g., health, family, financial, personal goals, collegiality, cost of living, anticipated leisure activities, etc.).
- work This kind of employment lacks the continuity and the career-building and benefits (e.g., health insurance or pension) expected of careers. This format is often more efficient for the company than making an open-ended employment commitment; it also avoids having to lay off workers when labor and/or expertise needs change.
- When the job market is strong, employees have more options available to them and can look for positions that will help them build their portfolios of skills and experience.
- In 1986, David Ekerdt theorized that there is a moral imperative for active involvement during retirement, representing people’s attempts to justify retirement in terms of their long-standing beliefs and values.
- The demand for employees, in terms of both numbers and skills.
- Posited by Robert Atchley in 1971, modifies activity theory with the idea that aging adults should attempt to preserve and even continue to evolve existing self-concepts, activities, and relationships. From the perspective of this theory, it is important to maintain what is valued, not merely substitute it with other things, to minimize disruption and sustain one’s sense of self.
- Jobs that carry people over from a career job to retirement.
- Often, this term is not clearly or consistently defined because there is little agreement on a chronological age at which a worker is considered “older”; however, we typically see age brackets for this group starting at as early as 45 years.
- When workers undergo training and employment two or more times, potentially in very different fields.
- find employment after NRAs.
- boomer brain drain
- Refers to both a larger social movement that aims to increase the potential for older people to contribute to society and to foster particular types of activities among older people (e.g., producing or consuming goods and services and volunteering).

- (1950–1953)A war between communist North Korea (supported by China and the USSR) and democratic South Korea (supported by the U.S. and UN forces). It ended in an armistice, with Korea still divided at the 38th parallel. It was one of the first major proxy wars of the Cold War.
- A U.S. foreign policy developed after WWII to prevent the spread of communism. It was based on the idea that the Soviet Union was trying to expand its influence, and the U.S. had to "contain" it by supporting anti-communist governments and movements.
- A 1947 U.S. policy that pledged support for countries resisting communism, particularly Greece and Turkey. It marked the beginning of the U.S. commitment to containment and signaled a shift toward active involvement in global Cold War conflicts.
- Leader of the Soviet Union from the 1920s until his death in 1953. He was a key figure in the start of the Cold War, establishing a communist bloc in Eastern Europe and maintaining a totalitarian regime. His policies contributed to the division of Europe and growing tension with the West.
- The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was a one-party communist state that existed from 1922 to 1991. As a superpower, it was the main rival to the United States during the Cold War. The USSR controlled much of Eastern Europe and supported communist movements around the world. It collapsed in 1991, ending the Cold War.
- (1962)A 13-day confrontation between the U.S. and the USSR over Soviet nuclear missiles placed in Cuba. It brought the world to the brink of nuclear war before a peaceful agreement was reached. It is considered the closest the Cold War came to turning into a nuclear conflict.

- (1945)A meeting between Harry Truman (USA), Winston Churchill (later replaced by Clement Attlee), and Joseph Stalin to finalize post-WWII plans. Unlike Yalta, tensions were higher as the U.S. had successfully tested the atomic bomb, and Stalin began asserting control over Eastern Europe. The conference increased mistrust between the Allies.
- An international organization created after World War I to maintain peace and prevent future conflicts. It failed to stop aggression in the 1930s, and its weaknesses led to the creation of the United Nations after World War II. Though it wasn't part of the Cold War, its failure influenced Cold War diplomacy.

- A conflict in which opposing superpowers support different sides but do not fight each other directly. Proxy wars allowed the U.S. and USSR to compete globally without engaging in direct military confrontation. Examples include the Korean War, Vietnam War, and Soviet-Afghan War.

- (1955–1975)A Cold War conflict in which the U.S. supported South Vietnam against the communist North, led by Ho Chi Minh and backed by the Soviet Union and China. It ended in U.S. withdrawal and the unification of Vietnam under communist rule. It deeply divided American society.
- (1948–1949)A Western response to the Soviet blockade of West Berlin. The U.S. and its allies flew in food, fuel, and supplies for nearly a year to support the people of West Berlin. It was a major early Cold War victory for the West and showed resistance to Soviet pressure.

- A militant conservative; opposite of "radical," which means ultraliberal.

Domestication 2023-12-30
Across
- The domestication experiment began, and the animals were selected only for tameness. In just the fourth generation, an animal by this name consistently wagged his tail when humans approached him. None in his generation did so and this trait was not repeated until the sixth generation. In addition, the animals were becoming noticeably tame. Belyayev and the researchers were stunned that in such little time their experiment was showing results. Just how fast can these animals be domesticated? By the sixth generation, many animals were coming to the front of their cages and licking the caretakers' hands. So fast!
- The name of the animal in the fifth generation that Lyudmila moved into a house on the experiment's grounds and lived with as part of the domestication experiment. This was the first animal that came when its name was called. This was an astonishing animal, loving and loyal in all the ways dogs are. One night, it sensed something wasn't right and ran off to bark at a security guard and settled down immediately--just like a dog--when Lyudmila began talking with the guard. It was never seen behavior, that one of the animals would seek out the threat and bark to warn a human of danger. This animal even fooled Lyudmila one day. She came to the house and saw the animal lying on the ground, seeming not even breathing. Lyudmila thought it had died and, after checking the animal, went to call a vet. She looked back and saw a crow had landed near the animal, intent on having a snack. The animal then jumped up and preyed upon the crow. This demonstrated a clear thought and planning process that had not been witnessed before. Sadly, though, this animal and all but one of her litter were slaughtered when some thugs broke into the house and killed them to sell their fur. Lyudmila and the team took this hard because the animals had not before understood that there are humans that are unkind.
- xxxx Selection - One of Belyayev's theories. Usually, the wild will select for certain traits and won't deviate too much. For example, gray wolves, zebras, and lions all seem to adhere to a standard morphology: not too much difference between individuals. But with domesticated dogs, you see an extreme variety of traits due to domestication.
- The Role of Hereditary xxxx of Behavior in the Process of Domestication - Belyayev was invited to give a talk at the ethology conference when it was held in Scotland. This is his presentation's title. Everyone who was anyone in the field was at this conference. This was the first time someone from the USSR was invited to such an event. Belyayev's findings astonished the community and pub Russian genetics on the map.
- The classification given to the animals that most exhibited the markers for domestication. Animals in this category were tame, exhibited friendly behavior, tail wagging, licking or nuzzling, and seeking out human social contact. The third generation had 5% of animals in this category. The sixth had 50%, and the tenth generation was past 80%. So fast!
- John xxxx - Finally, Russia got to host the genetics conference. In 1977, this head of the department of genetics at NC State University was invited to the Akademgorodok (where the experiment was in Novosibirsk) to evaluate the Soviet research programs. He gave the programs flying colors. Belyayev, of course, showed him the animals. Like anyone exposed to them, his heart melted. This experiment became known as the the institute's calling card, their major achievement in the field. Tons of research papers and experiments regarding these animals (genetics, behavior, and psychology) were produced.
- The xxxx Rush - A so-called time in Prince Edward Island when beautiful pelts rose from a couple hundred dollars to $2,500 on the world market. The finest breeding pairs were selling for tens of thousands of dollars. Russian fur breeders ended up importing several of these animals. By the late 1930s, the Soviet Union was one of the top exporters of this animal's fur. However, the animals were aggressive towards humans and everyone had to wear two inch thick gloves to avoid being bitten. Belyayev started his experiment at a fur farm with a small group of these animals.
- This is a gesture humans make when they want to call attention to something. Dogs are geniuses at studying human gestures and knowing what humans want. An an experiment, food was hidden under one of two cans. The human would then make this gesture. Dogs immediately understood what the human was doing and went for the food. It was later repeated with toys to the same results. Wolves, as dogs' cousins, did not do well with this experiment. When this experiment was done with these animals, the control and aggressive groups didn't do well, either. However, the domesticated group did on average slightly better than dogs. Considering dogs have had tens of thousands of years to study humans and get used to gestures and reading humans' faces and tones of voice, no one expected an experiment only fifty years old domesticating these animals could produce animals that were even better than dogs at reading humans and interpreting their gestures. It's said these animals are loyal and smart like dogs, independent like cats.
Down
- Humans have tried to domesticate many animals over the eons. For example, deer have been a good food source in parts of the world. But no matter how humans tried with the dozens of deer species, only this one species of deer has been domesticated. It's the same with horses and zebras: though similar, zebras could not be domesticated. So, just because two species are similar doesn't mean both can be domesticated. So, the question is this: why can some animals be domesticated and others can't?
- Animals in the wild engage in less of this behavior as they mature--and many different species do this. Domestication, however, seems to prolong this behavior. Indeed, domestic dogs perform this behavior all the time. This behavior is important for social interaction and in a willingness to explore one's environment. In studies, once a wild adult animal knows something is not food, they're not interested in it. But domestic animals tend to continue interacting with the object, known as object xxxx, for no other reason than amusement. The animals in the experiment were exhibiting this behavior more and more.
- Stalin promoted this uneducated peasant man to the director position at the Academy of Sciences. He did not believe in genetics. The only experience in crop breeding he has was in cultivating sugar beets. He ruined the careers of and sometimes executed Russian scientists who believed in and worked with genetics. Proving the genetic theory of evolution would expose him as a fraud. The animal domestication experiment had to disguise itself as a way to produce better furs and as a way of looking to breed animals more than once a year to increase pelt production. It was a dangerous time to be in genetics. Belyayev, however, was difficult to touch and shut down because he was well-respected by the government for being able to produce furs that sold extremely well on the world market, giving the USSR much-needed cash. Belyayev called this man a "scientific bandit".
- According to the experiment, it's said these optimize an animal to its environment. The findings suggested a link between the selection for tameness and changes in xxxx regulation in the stress response and social behavior. The experiment provided insights into the genetic basis of the observed xxxx changes and their connection to the broader process of domestication. Later, it was proven there were significant changes due to domestication.
- American xxxx -After the collapse of the USSR, funding became tight. The government tried to keep the experiment funded. For a while, they succeeded. Later, though, there was no funding for anything. Lyudmila had to go out and beg passing cars for money or food to feed the animals. They couldn't even pay any of the caretakers, though some remained to work free. Lyudmila wrote an article to this magazine to tell of the experiment and its plight. She had 700 animals at the start. While waiting through the -40F Siberian winter, she couldn't keep all the animals fed. Some starved. Others--mostly in the control and aggressive groups--she had to kill and sell furs to keep the tame group fed. Finally, this magazine published her article. She dared to hope that something would come of it. Letters began to pour in from around the world, from people asking how they could donate to the experiment, some a little, some tens of thousands of dollars. The experiment continues to this day. In the early 2010s, I heard you could purchase a nonbreeding animal from the experiment for $6,000 (and it would take an additional $3,000 for paperwork and importing the animal).
- When a mother stares into a baby's eyes, this hormone becomes elevated in each. Same when people pet a dog. Scientists tried it with a wolf and the levels were unchanged. But when interacting with the animals in Belyayev's domestication experiment, it was shown this was also elevated in both the human and animal when interacting. This is a strong indication of a bond forming between humans and their domesticated pets. The animals in this experiment have never been domesticated before, and yet this distinct situation was showing up with them when being petted.
- This man collected more than 250,000 domesticated plant specimens, and more live specimens than anyone in history. He wrote more than 350 papers, several books, mastered more than a dozen languages, and worked in trying to solve Russia's famines through crop breeding. He traveled the world looking for domesticated plant samples and the birthplace of domesticated plant species. Through studying plants, he was able to identify eight centers of world plant domestication. His life was like a movie: after WWI, his ship struck a German mine and sunk, losing the samples he had collected in a study; he was arrested on the Iran-Russia border and accused of being a spy because he had some German textbooks with him; in the central Asia region, his was abandoned by his guide, ditched from his caravan, and was attacked by robbers; he fell between two train cars on the border of Afghanistan and was left dangling by his elbows while the train kept running; in Syria, he contracted both malaria and typhus; and he contracted dysentery many times. In the end, due to his opposition to the government's anti-genetics stance, he was forbidden to travel abroad and he was publicly denounced. He refused to back down from his conviction of genetics. He was later thrown into prison and slowly starved to death over three years.
- The xxxx in the Science of Biology - The most disingenuous speech made in the history of science. The speaker denounced Mendelian genetics and furthered Lamarckian inheritance, saying that acquired traits could not be inherited. Lamarckian inheritance argued that traits used by an organism over its lifetime can be inherited. For example, if an organism used a particular organ extensively, that organ would become more developed and then be inherited by its offspring. Genetics, on the other hand, used DNA to pass traits on. This speech and its adoption by the Communist Party set back Russian genetics for decades, making it dangerous to work the field.
- Man is Making a New xxxx - Belyayev died in 1985. He wanted to write a book about these animals to let the world know. This is what he wanted to call the book. Lyudmila, who was handing the experiment for him since almost its inception, continued running the experiment after his death, and to this day. She ended up writing a book with another author, but used a different title.
- Some of the domesticated animals began making a vocalization that sounded like this sound humans make. None of the control or aggressive animals ever made this vocalization. Lyudmila made several recordings and eventually found someone to analyze the sound. The researcher said if you graphed out this sound and put it next to a human making the sound, she'd be hard-pressed to tell the difference. It's eerily similar. On a side note, if you pull up any YouTube video of Finnegan Fox at SaveAFox, you can definitely hear him making the same vocalization when he's being petted.
- Belyayev used this animal for the domestication experiment. Just how long did it take wolves to be domesticated into dogs? What pressures were involved? Did wolves self-select for domestication or did humans somehow begin breeding wolves? Who approached the other? Did it just slowly happen? Belyayev thought if they bred this animal solely on tameness, domestication could eventually follow. What other traits would follow along with domestication? Everyone would be surprised at what happened.
19 Clues: xxxx Selection - One of Belyayev's theories. Usually, the wild will select for certain traits and won't deviate too much.
