What gender-role belief is described as 'v traditional mentality' in the notes?

• A. Women shouldn't have to work so hard; let the man bring home money
• B. Women should have to work in dentistry
• C. Men should not work
• D. There should be no gender roles in career

Answer: (A)

Traditional gender-role beliefs center on men as the primary breadwinners and women in homemaking or lesser work roles. The statement “Women shouldn't have to work so hard; let the man bring home money” directly expresses that mindset, valuing the male provider role and the idea that a woman’s work outside the home is optional or secondary. That’s why it best matches a v traditional mentality. The other options describe women working, men not working, or rejecting gender roles altogether, which align with non-traditional or egalitarian views.
