  1. gender role
  2. gender type
  3. gender schema
  4. gender identity

The answer is 1. gender role.

Explanation:

Gender roles refer to the expectations about what is appropriate for a certain gender to do or think. For example, in some cultures it is accepted that women wear jeans or skirts, while in some countries it might result in prison or even death.

It's important to recognise that gender roles may affect men, too. A common role for men is to be "strong" physically and emotionally, so a man crying could be seen as unacceptable by some people.
