hola jóvenes sean bienvenidos a una
clase más el tema que veremos hoy son
los roles
casado cuenta que en tus actividades
diarias cuando vas a la escuela cuando
vas a las plazas cuando llegas a tu casa
cumples diferentes papeles pues estos
son los roles cumples un papel de alumna
un papel de amiga papel de hija
a cumplir estos papeles estos son
comportamientos que se esperan de ti y
que te harán adquirir un estatus
posición específica ante tu círculo
social
vamos a definir el rol desde un enfoque
social
es la posición del individuo en la vida
social común que condiciona a una
determinada conducta y que por otra
parte despierta expectativas entre las
partes sociales el rol frente a un grupo
está relacionado con un concepto de
estatus
y ustedes preguntarán profe pero que es
un rol y yo les contestaré
un role contiene un conjunto de
actividades necesarias para desempeñar
un específico y concreto cometido social
ok vamos más lento
un role contiene un conjunto de
actividades necesarias para desempeñar
un específico y completo cometido social
consiste en una serie de acciones
estandarizadas diferentes en el rol
pues cumplir un rol supone comportarse
según unos patrones pautas o normas
determinadas
y es importante hacer una distinción
entre los conceptos de error y
estereotipos recordemos de la clase
pasada que un estereotipo es una imagen
mental simplificada y estándar de un
grupo de gente que comparten cualidades
características y habilidades
con esto pasaremos a analizar los
siguientes términos
estereotipos de género roles de género y
la identidad de género
pero antes tenemos que distinguir entre
sexo y género
sexo son características físicas y
biológicas
mientras el género son características
que asigna la sociedad que nos dice cómo
debemos ser
un estereotipo de género son creencias
prescripciones reglas o expectativas
específicas de cada sociedad que define
lo masculino y lo femenino
por ejemplo en el término masculino el
hombre tiene un papel de valiente con
iniciativa independiente cabeza de
familia agresivo rebelde activo
trabajador no sentimental protector en
cambio en lo femenino la mujer siempre
es buena pasiva obediente servil tierna
maternal ama de casa eficiente amable
delicada dependiente temerosa atractiva
y siempre joven etcétera
estos son modelos ideales que operan en
la dimensión y simbólica de la cultura y
expresan la representación social que
cada cultura ha construido en torno a la
diferencia sexual
en un rol de género se refiere a la
manera como los individuos actúan en
comportan cya con los estereotipos
comprenden la personalidad los
comportamientos y la ejecución de
actividades que se consideran
corresponden a su sexo biológico los
roles de género operan a nivel de
prácticas sociales por ejemplo en la
mayoría de los educadores de preescolar
son mujeres y la mayoría de los
mecánicos son varones
en la entidad de género es la expresión
subjetiva asignada socialmente mediante
la cual una persona se concibe a sí
misma como perteneciente a uno de los
géneros femenino o masculino
los roles y sus estereotipos
correspondientes son muy poderosos por
las siguientes razones
la primera es
que establecen una coherencia entre el
comportamiento y el contexto por ejemplo
si soy mujer y quiero ir al cine
debo ir acompañada con o caminar sola en
la noche
como segundo
adaptarlos implica incorporar sus
exigencias por ejemplo si soy mujer debo
ser madre
y como trasero la acción termina
moldeando las personas
y todos estos roles se transmiten
gracias a los agentes de socialización
que son la familia la escuela grupos de
iguales trabajo etcétera
y en todos estos roles existen
conflictos
tales como el conflicto en terror el
conflicto interno el conflicto personal
rol sobrecarga de rol ambigüedad error
y estos conflictos surgen cuando hay
desacuerdos entre las expectativas que
sobre un determinado rol tienen los
participantes en una interacción
un conflicto interno es cuando hay un
choque entre algunos de nuestros roles
en un momento determinado
a diferencia de un conflicto en carroll
es la coexistencia de pautas que pueden
ser incompatibles en un mismo rollo
y un conflicto personal de rol es la
incompatibilidad entre los deseos
necesidades creencias y los valores de
la persona y las expectativas inherentes
al rol que desarrolla
y una sobrecarga de rol se da por las
demandas que diferentes personas hacen
simultáneamente a un mismo individuo
y que no pueden ser atendidas al mismo
tiempo entonces la persona debe decidir
cuáles aceptan y cuáles no
y cuando hablamos sobre la ambigüedad de
un rol es cuando existe una habilidad en
relación con las expectativas sobre la
conducta que lleva a cabo un determinado
rol se da en situaciones de cambio de
definición de rol o de apariciones de
nuevos roles
por otra parte existe la posibilidad de
autonomía es decir que la persona elija
o no llevará a cabo la conducta
prescrita que esperan los demás
pero no saben esta autonomía es limitada
porque generalmente nos encontramos
sujetos a determinados ordenamientos
sociales y sometidos a fuertes presiones
para que la conducta no sea parte de la
norma sobre todo en contextos muy
estratificados
por ejemplo en la escuela no puedes
comportarte como el consentido de tus
papás
aunque ocasiones pareciera
en el plantel educativo tu rol es el de
un alumno que debe dedicarse a estudiar
ya todo este tema nos hace preguntarnos
qué roles cumplimos ante nuestros amigos
nuestro círculo social
cómo nos sentimos desempeñando dichos
roles
y sobre todo nos pongamos a pensar si
tenemos una presión en nuestro grupo
social para 100.000 ciertos roles
y con esto cerramos el tema de esta
semana
por favor no se olviden de checar sus
tareas en plataformas
y nos vemos hasta la próxima semana
adiós
