Female Involvement in Physical Recreation. Gender Role as a Constraint.
Kane, Mary Jo
Journal of Physical Education, Recreation and Dance, v61 n1 p52-56 Jan 1990
Female socialization, through the influence of gender as a social institution, acts as a powerful constraint on women's involvement in physical recreation. The contribution made to this socialization by young children's play behavior and the link between gender-role conformity and dual career women's lack of leisure are discussed. (IAH)
