    women. From the moment a child is born, identification of sex followed by gender-
    based role assignment begins and this process continues to be an integral part of
    socialization of children into adulthood.

    Most of the stereotyped roles or messages are given to children from childhood days
    by parents, siblings, pears, society and the mass media. In fact, these messages
    communicate that certain behaviours are acceptable for body but not for girls, and
    vice-versa.

    As the child grows up, he/she identifies himself/herself with the parents of the same
    sex. The male child starts internalizing the characteristic of his father and the female
    child internalizes the characteristics of the mother.

    Gender roles continue to influence the behaviour of teenagers during the formative
    period. The gender identity with regard to various types or roles, such as
    occupational roles, domestic roles, kinship roles, community leadership roles,
    conjugal roles and parental roles continue to develop during the period of
    adolescence.

    The effect of such gender- defined roles results in development of attitudes,


    behaviour and value orientation viewed appropriate for male and female in a given
    cultural setting.-

    Therefore, there is need to promote appropriate gender role development among


    young people during the formative period so that discrimination of women can be
    challenged and a transformation of traditional models of gender relations take place
    in the society. This is required if we want to create a decent society where men and
    women can live a meaningful life with dignity.

    Only a consciously prepared curriculum on sexual health education can influence the
    existing stereotyped gender roles.
