Gender in the discourse ofculture, class and status

(Muhammad Faizan Jameel, )

Women roles are culturally define in context of historic attributes; these defined roles are controlled by the dominant class to protect their will of describing social practices. Cultural barrios are not only the reason towards the marginalization of women population regarding social autonomy; there is some other factors like politics, hierarchal structure, existence of formal values etc. In any social system there is anoverall setup of identity in the shape of culture and in that big culture setup there are some sub-cultures as well, sometimes these sub-cultures create an environment of disorganization while implementing their cultural concept to get hegemony in the society. In Most of the societies women are treated as the playing tool for getting dominance and these types of actions are justified through the false interpretations of traditional concepts and views. Those societies that have multi-culturalpopulation; sometimes create an environment of anomy when multiple groups want to address or implement their group believes in the society. In these type of countries, the main victims are the women population that are conceive as marginalize side, not just at the overall scenario but also at the sub-group statuses.

Cultural shift in different paradigms of our social structures have its influence on different aspects of gender based identities, in that case the role of woman exists at the sub-ordinate level. Women are supposed to perform a supportive role to protect the decisions of dominant class. The religious identities became a stigma for a particular class that exists in minority status. These type of stigmas are not labeled gender or sex vise, it contains the politic, structural and hegemonic inputs on both the genders, like the offering religious duties in such society where the number of that particular followers are minorities, face immense pressure to live according to their religious attributes. We should have to create such type of neutral system that provide equal opportunities to all types of demographic characters of the society to achieve a organize social status.
