    Social roles and role expectations, which are experienced by men and women in concrete social situations as binding norms, are dependent on the culture of the society, in question, which itself is again the result of historical. processes often reaching far back into the past. Similar is the case with family and sex roles of every human society irrespective of the degree of technical development. The players of the roles are mostly neither aware of the cultural nor of the historical dimension of what they feel as correct behavior.
