Gender is constituted by a complex pattern of behaviour and social inter-relationships but has scope for individual manipulation and interpretation. Individuals do not respond to social situations uniformly. Through his or her own management of the existing social environment, each person can prevail upon society to grant him/her the ‘space’ they want. This ‘space’ need not take individuals outside the sphere of social interaction. What I have tried to show in this paper is that within a cul-ture, there is space for individuals to exert their individualism, often in a manner which goes against the normative pattern, and yet retain their social identity.
