Gender as a category is a form of socially constructed political identity that considers variation in the social meaning of masculinity and femininity around the world. On the other hand, gender as a political process refers to the individual involvement in political institutions to either preserve or change gender relations, or ways in which existing social context and political institutions shape one's relative ability to preserve and/or change gender relations.
