In this interview, we observed Jack Miller's biological, psychological and sociocultural changes over the years. Biologically he has not changed so much and remains to be a healthy adult male. Psychologically he has experienced several things such as joining a 12 step program, being affected by ageism, and how starting a family changed him. He also came in contact with the civil rights movement through shame and guilt and became involved with the movement against the Vietnam War. Socioculturally he mentioned that his wife's family was hard to integrate into, his high school reunion and how his current relationship with his kids turned out.…
With the new generation of millennials coming into adulthood, social attitudes are changing and the dynamics between relationships and families are no longer primarily traditional. To explore these new social attitudes, especially in regards to race, gender, and class, the present study conducted interviews about the subjects’ personal beliefs and values. The interviewees were asked questions about work opportunities for those of race, gender, and class minorities, different work/family structures once children are brought into families, and the role of maternal and paternal leave in families. The interviewees vary in their own race, gender, and class and provided answers based on their own personal upbringings. Therefore, their responses vary…
Have you ever been judged because you do not look or act in the same way of the people who criticize you? We have a world where there are different customs, social classes, languages, behaviors, etc. They make us unique which in most cases it is something good, but in some cases these different aspects people judge each other. As I am currently living in the United States, I am from Colombia. This situation has made people from here judge me due to cultural differences.…
The Face Behind the Mask What does identity tell us about someone? In my opinion, our identity is not only our race, gender or sexuality. When we identify someone, we should identify people by their thoughts and actions.…
What one person believes is pure or right in reality is not how things really are. Those beliefs are either taught by their parents or by the events that have happen in one’s life. Our beliefs and how we view right, wrong, superior races has to do with what our parents taught us sometimes that is not an easy to do to unlearn what has been taught. There is no good reason to ALLIENTATE a person because of how they look or their ETHNITICITY. That type of behavior leads to things like GENOCIDE and COLONIASIM takes place.…
Hi everyone, In regards to when I felt out of my depth. I felt out of my own depth was when I moved from the South to the North. At the time they were still covering the civil war. The North and South have very different ways of teaching that subject.…

What other factors can be used to subordinate groups of people?

After discussing, the one thing that I think connects us. It is a good time to move on from the interview to the comparative culture portion of the paper, I feel there is a lot that needs to be discussed. One major thing I noticed is that we both struggle a lot with our race, ethnicity, and nationality. The similarity comes in that we both seemed to have difficulty defining our actual ethnicity. For Louis he is struggling with being ‘American’ and Hispanic within that nationality.…
Gender differences in personality traits have been documented in many empirical studies. For instance, Maccoby and Jacklin (1974) conducted the first major review of research on sex-related differences in cognition, temperament, and social behaviour in children and adults. They concluded that men are more assertive and less anxious than women. However, there were no differences found for two other traits analysed, locus of control and self-esteem. The reason for such gender differences to exist is due to the interaction between culture, biology, gender roles and gender-role ideology.…
Discussion The main result of this study was the gender difference. Males tended to favour privatisation and have less prosocial thoughts than females which was an unexpected finding. However you do have to take into account the number of participants in each gender when determining the average answers for each question. The control group responded as expected.…

Differences between the genders Differential treatment of the sexes can be seen in cultures all around the world. While some cultures favor women, Irish society values boys more than girls. This favoritism is exemplified in the way children are regarded and therefore treated. We can explore a few reasons as to why boys are perceived to be valuable yet fragile individuals. As well as why girls endure a harsher upbringing and what results from it.…
The four cognitive areas where gender differences are most shown is in memory, verbal abilities, mathematics abilities, and spatial abilities. Memory tests tend to show that women scored higher than men, especially when asked to recall certain words. Women also recalled more words from a “grocery store” list” and recalled as equally with men in the “hardware store” list. They also can recall events from their own lives more than men, perhaps because mothers encourage expressing emotions to their daughters more than to their sons, and therefore they get more practice in this area. They can even remember faces more than men, including individuals’ faces from different ethnic groups and their physical traits.…
Everyone is different. People are judged for their looks, colour and even their personal beliefs. Judging someone for how they look isn’t something to be proud of. Everyone is different and that’s what makes everyone special in their unique way. Colour shouldn’t matter…
Throughout history men and women have done things that have changed the world. They are constantly pitted against each other, and sexist terms have resulted from human prejudices. Even though men and women are different, they also have their similarities. To say one is superior to the other would be ludicrous. Men and women are alike and different in many ways, but without these variations the world we know would cease to exist.…
