Question

A friend of yours tells you about her neighbor, Stan. She is scared to be around him because he usually yelling at other neighbors and has had the police visit his house. She also wonders if Stan is physically abusing his wife. Compare and contrast the culture of honor explanation with the evolutionary explanation for why Stan is acting aggressively.

Answer 1

Answer:

It is due to culture of honor.

Explanation:

Stan is acting aggressively because of the anger that is present in his behaviour. He is quick temper and can't control his anger. A culture of honor is also responsible for such type of behaviour. A culture of honor is a kind of culture in which a person in most cases a man feels force or compel to protect his reputation by answering insulting manner, threats and sometimes through the use of violence. So we can say that Stan's aggressive behaviour is due to culture of honor.
