Doing Gender is the idea that gender, instead of being a natural or inborn person, is psychologically ingrained into everyday human interaction. When asked to pose for a photo a male might stand tall, usually with arms crossed or at the sides, and might not even smile. When he does this it will completely normal because it is accepted for his gender to do that. When a female poses for a photo she will probably try to look beautiful, more thin, and smile. If a woman were to frown with her arms to her side, it would seem strange for her gender. Other examples include women not speaking loudly, men fishing, women sewing, men being brave, women being caretakers, men being smart and women being obsessed with their beauty.
