Functional sex segregation refers to the division of roles and responsibilities within a society based on the perception of the capabilities and strengths of individuals based on their gender. This segregation often leads to certain tasks being designated as appropriate for one gender over the other, which can result in unequal opportunities, resources, and power dynamics between men and women. This can reinforce traditional gender norms and stereotypes, limit individual choices and opportunities, and contribute to the perpetuation of gender inequality. | Functional sex segregation refers to the division of roles and responsibilities within a society based on the perception of the capabilities and strengths of individuals based on their gender.

Functional sex segregation refers to the division of roles and responsibilities within a society based on the perception of the capabilities and strengths of individuals based on their gender. This segregation often leads to certain tasks being designated as appropriate for one gender over the other, which can result in unequal opportunities, resources, and power dynamics between men and women. This can reinforce traditional gender norms and stereotypes, limit individual choices and opportunities, and contribute to the perpetuation of gender inequality.
