Masculinity and Femininity are binary opposites as they are similar terms with opposite meanings.

Masculinity definition: qualities or attributes regarded as characteristics in men or boys

Femininity definition: qualities or attributes regarded as characteristics in women or girls

Qualities and attributes that define masculinity and femininity are created in the society we live in and may be seen as stereotypes. Different cultures and societies may define these characteristics differently.

Upbringing can also affect peoples ideas on masculine and feminine attributes as they could have been brought up with the idea that certain behaviours are more masculine or feminine than they really are.
