Abstract

Hardly a day goes by without a headline about ‘fundamental’ differences between men and women. Self-help books claim that men and women are from different planets, and we are surrounded by often contradictory representations of what it means to be a ‘normal’ man, woman, boy, girl. How can psychology help us make sense of these debates, and understand social norms of masculinity and femininity?
