Answer:

It violated the Equal Protection Clause.

Explanation:

In the text of the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution, the Equal Protection Clause forbids states from denying in its jurisdiction, any person, the equal protection of the laws. When section 2 of DOMA attempted to allow states the denial of recognition of marriages conducted in other states by same sex couples, it violated the Equal Protection Clause.

Sociologists argue that what is considered deviant varies from culture to culture. Give an example of something that might be co

Mkey [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

One of the examples of behavior that would be considered deviant in one society and not in the other is the eating of certain animals. The examples are:

Some societies in India consider the cow a sacred animal and never would consume beef.
Muslim societies do not eat pork meat.
Insects are considered a tasty snack in many countries, including Thailand, while it would be considered gross by many people from the west.
While some of the western European countries (like France and Belgium) have specialized butcher shops and restaurants for horse meat, eating it would most likely be considered taboo in the US or UK.
The most radical example is the eating of dogs, which occurs in some Asian countries, most notably China. There is even a whole festival for dog meat consumption in Yulin, and every year there are protests across the globe because of this event. Slaughtering dogs for meat consumption is prohibited in the US and plenty of other countries.

With all of this, we can conclude that some food consumption can be seen as deviant in some parts of the world, while in others it is a normal occurrence and part of the every-day diet.

Despite various taboos and laws, what we have to understand is that our connection to the animals is culturally constructed. The fact that people of the US feel closer to dogs, cats, and horses, but not to sheep and pigs, is not the fact supported by nature. There is nothing in nature itself and the nutrition of horses, insects, and various other species that prevents us to eat them. These deviances surrounding different meats are all culturally constructed. This does not mean they are less real or that we should eat all the animals, just that we have to realize that our ways are no naturally more or less right than someone else’s.

Which barrier to effective listening is displayed when helga listens to sven very carefully until he says something she can use

Hunter-Best [27]

This is criticizing the speaker. This makes it difficult to effectively listen when the listener already knows that there is a fact or point that is going to be used against the speaker. In addition, by interrupting, the rest of the points that might be made by Sven are lost in her rebuttal.
