Definition(s)
- From a sociological perspective, gender identity is an individual's identification as either male or female, which is affected by societal and personal conceptualizations of what it means to be a boy or a girl. Gender identity development is particularly important during adolescence, as gender role identification and adherence to role standards get stronger as adolescents get older.
