The Impact of Growing Infantilism in the Community on the Erasure of Gender Differences

Autors: 
Akhmedov Rustam K., North Caucasian State Institute of Arts
Abstract: 

The paper assesses the impact of growing infantilism in the community on the erasure of gender differences and also the emergence of new social and gender roles from the fresh perspective on relevant gender issues. In addition to the direct connection of infantilism and a gender choice of a single individual, the author finds sources of infantile perception of a multitude of people mostly in the social phenomenon of neoteny, widescale unaccomplised Oedipus and Electra complexes, as well as in a wide genetic diversity. As a result, the author puts forward the hypothesis (in the light of the results of this work) that indicates
further separation of «classic» male and female social and gender roles that will continue to diverge in different directions.
