General roles & status ~ Very Traditional sex roles and stereotypes within the Mexican society. ( Cezar Romero and Nava Gibbons) ~ Male to Male relationships are: - extreme aggressive - suborned ~ Male to Women relationships are : - sexual aggression - dishonor ~ Women are viewed as self-sacrificing and they are dependent. ~ Women also take care of household chores and families. ~ Men earns income/money to support the family Mexican Flag 3
Marriage ~ Free to choose their own marriage partner. ~ but there’s a rule that applies to getting marry, YOU must choose someone who is the same social class as you and same ethnicity. ~ Monogamy is the only marriage form allowed in both men and women What is monogamy? ~ Divorce rate – 6.5 % D, Paul.

Socialization ~ At age four Children's are required to attend kindergarten for 2 years. ~ Children's in Mexico are rapidly combing into activities of adults, they are encouraged to not discover the surroundings by themselves. ~ After kindergarten, required to go to primary school for 6 years.
