Social role theory is grounded on the notion that one's actions, behaviors, dispositions and desires are determined by a set of specific socially determined roles. Social role theory constructs a set of socially acceptable norms and expectations that people internalize as they become socialized. People can then choose to either validate those norms or act against them. In most cultures around the world, women have less power than men have and hey control fewer resources (Wood & Eagly, 2002). This is a true fact but now things are changing around the world, they are more women that have better position in society than man for example the president in Argentina and also the secretary of state Miss Clinton those are few people that full success, why because of the hard work and dedication, just to proof that we are all equal.

Many people males ting that if you aren’t the one bringing the bread to the table or making more money that your wife is going to make you lees of a man. In my case, I decide to get out the Navy this past February because I want to finish my college and become a professional, I have help from the GIbill but is not enough for a full income and now my wife is the one with the mayor income in the household, at first it kind of made uncomfortable because I was the one who use to make the most, but now in days this is a reality that most women are been more successful than man and now they are the provider for the house.

Social cogitative theory psychology that attempts to explain human behavior by understanding the thought processes. The assumption is that humans are logical beings that make the choices that make the most sense to them. Primarily focused on the ways in which we learn to model the behavior of others, social cognitive theory can be seen in advertising campaigns and peer pressure situations.
