Since the 1970s, the study of gender as a social construct within the context of language use has been a prominent topic. It is often observed that individuals of different genders tend to employ distinct expressions when using language. Lexical choices made by the speakers or writers play on the cognition of the listener or reader and reduplicate gender-related biases or preconceived notions even when the recipients of the message are gender-neutral. Various theories have emerged to address this issue, including the Deficit Theory, Dominance Theory, Radical Theory, Difference Theory, and Reformist Theory. Moreover, numerous stereotypes tend to convey more unfavorable judgments concerning women's language as opposed to men's. Various factors influence the gendered usage of linguistic forms, including employment and marriage prospects, industrialization, urbanization, and social networks. In the realm of education, it is crucial to emphasize three key areas: subject content, the teaching and learning process, and classroom materials. Long-standing traditional practices and patriarchal social systems discourage women from uplifting and persist in perpetuating gender bias. Gender Inequalities are not limited to a single dimension, but they are shaped by a complex interplay across different areas of life. The purpose of this paper is to look at the disparities in gendered language and to conclude if there is such a thing as gendered language.
