ConclusionPrevention and combating cyber bullying and internet violence among youth– manual for youth workers –Throughout their lives, women and men receive messages from family, media, and societyabout how they should act and how they should relate to each other. It is important to understandthat, although there are differences between men and women, many of these differences areconstructed by society and are not part of nature or biological make-up. Even so, thesedifferences can have fundamental impacts on women’s and men’s daily lives and relationships.For example, a man is often expected to be strong and dominant in his relationships with others,including with his intimate partners. At the same time, a woman is often expected to besubmissive to a man’s authority. Many of these rigid gender stereotypes have consequences forboth men and women. As we become more aware of how gender stereotypes can negativelyimpact our lives and communities, we can think constructively about how to challenge themand promote more positive gender roles and relations in our lives and communities.
