Changed the word American to Christian in first paragraph. The United States, both traditionally and legally has no defined gender roles, at least not for a long time.
'''Gender roles''' refer to the roles held by [[men]] and [[women]] in society. While cultures worldwide have had disparate conceptions of gender roles, in the [[American]] and [[Catholic]] traditions, the roles are those of men as breadwinners and women as homemakers.

The concept of gender roles is often associated with modern [[feminism]] and with their belief that said gender roles are merely "[[social construct]]s", rather than real and essential differences between masculine and feminine traits.
