Social Studies
1 answer:
yan [13]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>One prejudice regarding women is that they are naturally neater and more prone to cleaning and housekeeping. </u>This isn’t true as women’s connection to the house is not in the biological nature, but in the way, a society shaped the women. <u>Since women are the ones giving birth to the children, it is expected of them to be more in the house and therefore take care of the house</u>. <u>They are taught to be more observant and careful about housework. It does not mean they more care about cleaning and house jobs, just that they are culturally subordinated to that role.</u>

<u>One prejudice about a minority is that all Asians are nerdy and into the STEM field. We can see this prejudice often in media as Asian characters often have minor roles in science fields, and their characterizations are connected to this. </u>This idea comes from the fact that Japan, South Korea, and China are developed countries with a strong technological industry. <u>Yet, not everyone that comes from Asia is into these topics – some Asians are not even from these specific countries, some were born in different countries, some have been born in the US, etc. The fact where someone is from doesn’t have anything to do with their intelligence, interests, and skills. Asian people are not just nerdy, socially awkward people who care only about science.</u>

laila [671]
No, i do not think it's a good idea.
If the president could control the flow of information in the internet, He basically can promote only the sites that are suitable to his Agenda and demoting the ones that don't.
This situation is very similar to a Tyrannical Government that forced its people into only thinking a certain way.
