Abstract
The paper titled, Role of Gender Essentialism in the world of children showcases how gender roles are planted in the minds of young minds. Gender Essentialism involves the stereotypical practices which were followed from ancient civilizations, without analyzing and discarding the toxic elements behind it. It involves the idea that certain ideas as of chastity, patience, virtue, gentleness are the feminine trends while anger, pride, ego, attitude are viewed from a male angle. This paper does try to bring out the gender politics which is seen in society as a social manipulation game transformed by the mainstream media.
期刊介绍：
English is an internationally known journal of literary criticism, published on behalf of The English Association. Each issue contains essays on major works of English literature or on topics of general literary interest, aimed at readers within universities and colleges and presented in a lively and engaging style. There is a substantial review section, in which reviewers have space to situate a book within the context of recent developments in its field, and present a detailed argument. English is unusual among academic journals in publishing original poetry. This policy embodies the view that the critical and creative functions, often so widely separated in the teaching of English, can co-exist and cross-fertilise each other.
