Narrow social roles for each gender exist within India due to culture, family, and religion-connected expectations: men are expected to be the breadwinners while women are seen as homemakers. While urban areas are redefining these roles, they still define the experiences of young people in rural communities. This paper explores the role of family, peers and media as major agents of socialization who promote gender stereotypes and expectations. The research, which used a mixed-methods approach of surveys and case studies, shows that there are significant pressures by gender impacting mental health in the area of body image concerns, anxiety and depression.
In order to promote the well-being and potential of future generations in India, the paper concludes with ideas for advancing gender equality by media reform, involvement of families, and education. It highlights the necessity of creating a more inclusive, gender-neutral environment.

Since then, this effect has been extensively researched on especially in workplace setting. Physical attractiveness, general appearance, colour of clothing etc have been reported to influence how individuals are perceived by others. These consequently also influence hiring, promotion and other decisions at a typical workplace. This study attempts to understand the influence of customers' appearance on the attitude and actions of the salespersons in the retail sector in Delhi, India. Observations, interviews and a survey were used to test the hypothesis. The results showed that customers who were 'well-dressed' were treated better than customers who were not. The findings can help improve the functioning and operations of salespersons in the retail sector.

Modern society also often overlooks the role of women in Mughal society and politics, underestimating their power. So, the aim of this research article is to evaluate the status of women in the Mughal Empire. We will be doing so by looking at three main aspects: Socioeconomic and political roles, Access to Education and the Influence of religion and culture. We will be drawing conclusions from previous research, journal articles and a few primary sources such as biographies, memoirs, and artworks. Through this article, we can de-mystify and clear the fog of misinformation surrounding the lives of women in the Mughal period.
