This article explores the development and significance of gender studies in contemporary linguistics, emphasizing its socio-linguistic essence and interdisciplinary nature. The term gender, derived from Latin genus and popularized in the mid-20th century, refers to the social and cultural constructs of roles and behaviors associated with biological sex. The paper discusses key methodological approaches, including sociolinguistic, psycholinguistic, and cognitive perspectives, to analyze the interplay between gender and language. It highlights notable differences in male and female communication styles, linguistic mechanisms, and cultural perceptions, drawing on global and Uzbek-specific studies.
