What logical argument is she presenting here: Each of these incidents illustrates the fact that, for many people, culture is so internalized that we take it as a given—as something we are born with. But both language and gender categories are elements of culture and, as such, are transmitted from generation to generation. As children, we are taught language, gender roles, how to behave, what to believe (religion), what foods taste good, and so on.
