b. power distance

e. masculinity/femininity

Answer 1

Answer:

e. masculinity/femininity

Explanation:

This refers to the allocation of positions between males and females. Within patriarchal cultures, the responsibilities of females and males differ very little and men are supposed to act forthrightly. Showing your performance, being quick and strong, is seen as a good attribute.In this aspect, masculinity is described as "a social preference for success, bravery, confidence, and material benefit for achievement." Its counterpart stands for "inclination to collaboration, chastity, care for the vulnerable and living standards."
