Gender Linguistics of English and Native languages 
In linguistics, the new directions of anthropocentric paradigm have been
developing in recent years and gender linguistics can be included in this
development. It is known that the first researches on gender started to be
investigated in western humanitarian sciences. The reason of appearing them was
the new views of investigations of the problems of intelligence, philosophy of
science and philosophy of society. “Gender” is considered the main object of
genderology. It includes anational description of cultures, the roles of male and
female in society and their relationship and behavior.
Post-structuralism has provided a major challenge to essentialist notions of gender
and has been crucial in the developing understanding of gender.With its emphasis
on the constitutive nature of discourse, it has thoroughly informed linguistic study
– and indeed has been largely responsible for the “linguistic turn” in many other
disciplines.Chris Weedon famously characterized language as ‘the place where
actual and possible forms of social organization and their likely social and political
consequences are defined and contested. Yet it is also the place where our sense of
selves, our subjectivity is constructed’ [Weedon,1987, 21].
In addition, the term “gender” is considered as one of the problematic concepts in
this direction of linguistics. The main attention of linguists was paid to distinguish
the terms of “gender” and “sex”. Cameron points out that a ‘correlational’
relationship between sex and gender is usually seen in one of two possible ways:
first, that gendered behavior is ‘built on’ to pre-existing sex differences, and,
second, that the sex-gender relationship may be arbitrary, but that there will always
be gender differences in behavior, which then come to “symbolize” sex (1997p).
This sex–gender relationship entails differences or tendencies in what women and
men do and say, stemming from the notion of gender as an idea about the
importance of differentiation between women and men.“Gender refers to the array
of socially constructed roles and relationships, personality traits, attitudes,
behaviors, values, relative power and influence that society ascribes to the two
sexes on a differential basis. Whereas biological sex is determined by genetic and
anatomical characteristics, gender is an acquired identity that is learned, changes
over time and varies widely within and across cultures. Gender is relational and
refers not simply to women or men but to the relationship between them”. O.V. 
Ryabov explains the relationship of these two terms as one whole and part: “Sex is
biological, consists of sociocultural sex with sociocultural elements. That is why
“gender” and “sex” is appeared as “whole and part”.



Genderological analysis of a language can serve in understanding not only its


anthropocentric paradigm but also its male and female peculiarities. The opinion of
