They saw how alcohol created hardships in the home and destroyed families. They also opposed saloons, centers of political deal-making from which they usually were banned.

The crusade against  alcohol was a protest by women, in part, of their lack of civil rights. Women could not vote. In most states women could not have control of their property or custody of their children in case of divorce. There were no legal protections  for women and children, prosecutions for rap were rare, and the state-regulated "age of consent" was as low as seven. Most local political meetings were held in saloons from which women were excluded. At the end of the  19th century Americans spent over a billion dollars on alcoholic beverages each  year, compared with $900 million on meat, and less than $200 million on public education.

¿Los estereotipos culturales podrian afectar la interrelación entre las y los estudiantes que asisten al encuentro? ¿por que ?
Ann [662]

La respuesta correcta a esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

Desafortunadamente la pregunta no mencionada el tipo de encuentro ni el lugar, pero podemos comentar lo siguiente.

Los estereotipos culturales podrían afectar la interrelación entre las y los estudiantes que asisten a un encuentro ya que influyen de manera directa en la percepción que tendrán los estudiantes de los demás compañeros asistentes.

Un estereotipo es una imagen preconcebida que distorsiona la realidad. Y esto claramente afecta porque antes de conocer a tus compañeros asistentes, los puedes estereotipar por clase social, raza, o lugar de procedencia.

Por ejemplo, un grupo de estudiantes de una escuela privada conocida por ser de nivel social alto, y por ende cara, puede estereotipar a los alumnos de una escuela pública, al que asisten alumnos de nivel social bajo y sus alumnos no hablan ni visten como los de la escuela privada.

Así que lo importante no es estereotipar, sino llevar una mentalidad abierta para conocer a los compañeros. Y hasta no haberlos conocido y hablado con ellos, tener una opinión más certera.
