The answer is masculine.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Masculine: This is the correct answer. In the context of cultural value orientations, a masculine society is one where traditional gender roles are emphasized. Men are expected to be assertive, competitive, and focused on material success, while women are expected to be nurturing and focused on family and home responsibilities. The preference for men as primary breadwinners and women as caretakers of the family aligns with a masculine value orientation.

  2. Power distance: This term refers to the extent to which less powerful members of a society accept and expect that power is distributed unequally. While power distance can influence gender roles, it is not specifically about the preference for gender-specific roles in the way described in the question.

  3. Feminine: In contrast to masculine societies, feminine societies value nurturing roles for both men and women, and there is less emphasis on traditional gender roles. Both genders are encouraged to be modest, caring, and concerned with the quality of life. This does not align with the preference for men as breadwinners and women as family caretakers.

  4. Uncertainty avoidance: This term describes the degree to which members of a culture feel uncomfortable with uncertainty and ambiguity. It is about how societies deal with the unknown and the future, rather than specific gender roles.

Therefore, the correct answer is masculine.
