"No they don't, because researchers believe that female sexual disorders are caused by self-objectification, rather than by male gender roles.". c. "Yes, they do, because male gender roles suggest that men should be aggressive, and women should be passive.". d. "It's not clear, because researchers have not conducted enough studies to determine whether gender roles are related to sexual disorders.".
