In his study, george murdock found that some agreement as to feminine and masculine tasks.men and women were equally likely to be engaged in farming.
many tasks were considered masculine by some societies and feminine by others.
For example, let's observe the east Asian culture. The act of bowing down to other people is arguably considered as un-masculine act in most western culture. But the Asian men were taught it's a masculine trait with the prupose of giving respect to other people.
