Expressive Role

The expressive role is a functionalist understanding of the female’s function in the family. The role of the female is to provide personality stabilisation, emotional support and child rearing. Females are seemingly in a submissive role, based on the 1950s view of married women, who are supposed to listen to and support their husbands.
