Gender roles can vary across cultures and can impact gender identity and expression.
A Southern paradox refers to contradictions or inconsistencies inherent in Southern culture, history, or identity. It may involve juxtapositions of values, behaviors, or perceptions that seem contradictory or unconventional when viewed together.
The electrical activity in the brain, through neuron firing patterns, plays a role in transmitting signals that influence our thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. Chemicals such as neurotransmitters control the communication between neurons, impacting mood regulation, memory formation, and decision-making processes. Together, these components create neural pathways that shape our cognitive and emotional experiences.
All processing at the circuit level going up to the perceptual level ultimately occurs within the neural networks in the brain. At each synapse, which is the connection between neurons, information is passed on in the form of electrical and chemical signals, allowing for complex processing and integration of sensory inputs to generate perceptions and behaviors.
Expectations can influence the perceptions of others by shaping how we interpret their behaviors, leading us to see what we expect to see rather than what is actually there. When we have specific expectations of someone, we may selectively pay attention to information that confirms those expectations while overlooking information that contradicts them. This can create bias and impact how we interact and communicate with others.

Peers provide social support and can influence attitudes and behaviors. Media shapes perceptions and values through exposure to various forms of information and entertainment.
We pick up learned behaviors through a combination of observation, imitation, and reinforcement. People exposed to the same things may pick up behaviors differently due to individual differences in interpretation, cognitive abilities, past experiences, and personal values that shape how they process and respond to the learned information.
