Explain the three stages of gender understanding based on Kohlberg's theory. How is the third stage related to the Piagetian concept of conservation?

What will be an ideal response?

Stages:
--Gender identity (age 2 ½) is when children can classify themselves and others correctly as boys or girls.
--Gender stability (age 4 to 5) is the understanding that gender is a stable characteristic over time.
--Gender constancy/consistency (age 6 to 7) is understanding that gender stays the same even if there are changes in the person's appearance.
Gender constancy is like the concept of conservation in that even when the appearance changes, the basic properties remain the same
