Agency is the individual's will to speak , practice, or enforce something (usually a social construction)
Social Constructions are norms or phenomena that do not "naturally" exist, but we have created as a society. (eg: gender is not biological)
Social constructions are associated/changed/imposed by structures and institutions, which consequently play's a role and influences our agency.
For example, do women get plastic surgery because they genuinely want to (agency) or is it because of social/commercial influences (Structure)
