Questions: Which of the following statements about gender intensification is true? In some American minority cultures, gender intensification may be less pronounced than in the majority culture. Gender intensification is often considerably stronger in traditional cultures than in the West. Gender intensification rises from adolescence to emerging adulthood. Anthropologist David Gilmore concluded that both adolescent boys and girls must demonstrate three capacities: to provide, protect, and procreate.

The answer is: Gender intensification is often considerably stronger in traditional cultures than in the West.

This statement is not universally true. While some minority cultures may have different gender norms, the degree of gender intensification can vary widely depending on specific cultural practices and beliefs.

This statement is true. Traditional cultures often have more rigid gender roles and expectations, which can lead to stronger gender intensification during adolescence. In contrast, Western cultures may have more flexible gender roles, although gender intensification can still occur.

This statement is not accurate. Gender intensification typically peaks during adolescence as individuals become more aware of societal gender roles and expectations. It may decrease as individuals move into emerging adulthood and develop a more stable sense of identity.

This statement is not accurate in the context of gender intensification. David Gilmore's work often focuses on male roles in traditional societies, emphasizing the need for men to demonstrate these capacities, but it does not specifically address gender intensification for both boys and girls.
