This article examines the relationship between gender stereotypes and conceptual metaphors from a cognitive linguistic perspective. Drawing on Conceptual Metaphor Theory, the study argues that gender stereotypes are not merely social constructs but are deeply embedded in cognitive patterns shaped and transmitted through language. The analysis focuses on metaphorical expressions that conceptualize femininity and masculinity, revealing how culturally shared metaphors contribute to the reproduction of stereotypical gender roles. Using qualitative data drawn from everyday language use and conventional metaphorical expressions, the study identifies recurring metaphorical mappings associated with women and men. The findings demonstrate that women are frequently conceptualized through metaphors emphasizing emotionality, fragility, and relational roles, while men are commonly associated with strength, control, and authority. These metaphorical patterns reflect and reinforce socially dominant expectations regarding gendered behavior and identity. By highlighting the cognitive mechanisms underlying gender stereotyping, the article contributes to a deeper understanding of how language shapes social perception. The study also emphasizes the importance of critically examining metaphorical language as a means of challenging persistent gender biases embedded in everyday discourse.
