How are gender roles enforced?

gender roles are enforced when parents or even society tells women to "act like a girl" by wearing makeup and wearing dresses and being feminine overall. This leads to men saying girls hit "Like a girl". Men are also supposed to "act like a man" and be strong and not cry or show feelings.

Answer: In many ways.

Explanation:

Some of the studies' findings aren't surprising. Girls are taught to feel vulnerable and the boys are predators, and boys are conditioned to be strong and independent. So basically girls are. Gender roles can be forced on adults, but most definitely children. They are enforced by the media, family, environment and society.
