D. Gender labelling, Gender struggle, Gender stability

Answer

A

Explanation

The Kohlberg.s cognitive developmental theory suggested that cognition comes before action and behavior for example, "I am a boy so I do boy-like things". This emphasises the importance of a child.s understanding about gender roles and their permanent placement in it. This idea of gender consistency is represented by three stages:
Gender identity: the child recognises that they are either a boy or a girl and possesses the ability to label others.
Gender stability: the Identity in which they recognise themselves as does not change.
Gender consistency: the acceptance that gender does not change regardless of changes in gender-typed appearance, activities, and traits.
