believe it is primarily due to the fact that we don’t like to think we have an advantage over someone else solely based on race, gender, class, and etc. But, I find it refreshing that there are some honest examples of privileges for all sorts of different type of privilege. In addition to the different types of privilege, these example lists show the intersectionality of race, gender, sexuality, and disability status because…
as a black feminist woman. While ideally there should be no negative connotation to this identity, I have been noticing recently that “feminist” has become almost a dirty word among certain people. The other day, I overheard a conversation at lunch about how a large presence of feminists and their opinions had “ruined” a classroom discussion.

different identities and places in society interact with each other. However, before one can understand intersectionality in others, one must examine the different areas of one’s own life and how they interact to form a unique identity.

Gender and social construction, gender roles, and race relations all played a role in the outcome of this debate.

of the power play within institutional contexts such as the legal institution (Eades 2006) and the medical institution (Crawford 1999). Language can also be discussed in the context of gender and sexuality. Cameron (2005) points out that when looking at socialization, gender linguistic behavior and gender identities are obtained in the early stages of a person’s life. Additionally, language is discussed and examined on how it is a source of power. Robbins (2001) discusses language ideologies…
These seven scientists do researches and are interested in different field in psychology, however, the motivations that guide those researchers share something in common.
