Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Benevolent sexism

Explanation:

Benevolent sexism refers to a chivalrous attitude toward women, this attitude is sexist because it sees women as in need of men's protection.  

Benevolent sexism is a form of paternalistic prejudice  directed toward women. This sexism corresponds with an attitude of treating women as needing men's protection, help and provision. Thus, people that are benevolent sexists end up overhelping women.

In this example, Dionne decided to major in chemical engineering. However, she discovers that her professors are giving her more deadline extensions and better grades than the men in her classes. We can see that <u>her professors are overhelping her as if she weren't able to achieve the same things during the same amount of time as the men in her class.</u> Thus, this is an example of benevolent sexism.

astraxan [27]

Answer:

The given question is incomplete; options are missing.  

The missing options are:

A. valid because this conclusion is believable.

B. valid because this is indeed a valid syllogism and the logic is apparent.  

C. invalid because this syllogism does not involve a pragmatic reasoning schema.  

D. invalid because of the influence of the atmosphere effect.  

The correct answer is option A.  

Explanation:

Syllogism is a rhetorical device used to draw a conclusion about certain arguments(premise). It is a form of logical reasoning.

A syllogism can be divided into three parts:

  • Minor premise
  • Major Premise
  • Conclusion

In the given case, the major premise is <em>"some tired people are irritable" </em>because it is stating a fact;<em> "all of the students are tired"</em> is a minor premise that is specifying a statement, and <em>"some of the students are irritable"</em> is a conclusion drawn from the major and minor premise.

This syllogism will be considered valid because the conclusion is believable.
