Why is aligning yourself with a group important? In other words, what are the advantages of identifying yourself as a certain ra
olasank [31]

Answer:

Identifying yourself with a certain characteristic can help you form an identity and find a community to belong to, making it easier to get along with others of your kind - e.g. fans of the same football team, music artist or interests often get along well and have fun talking about their similarities. However, aligning yourself as a member of such groups can mean that others may see you in certain ways, for example, fans of BTS are often seen as annoying, obsessive teenage girls. This can be inaccurate and may cause prejudice and discrimination. Being part of a group can also mean you hold prejudice views against any opposing groups, e.g. fans of rival football teams tend to show aggression against each other during football matchs.

Explanation:

If you want, you might quote the Social Identity Theory by Tajfel that talks about the problems that can rise from forming groups! Hope this helps! :)

Do you believe that our culture tends to expect more or less of people who are experiencing hardships? Why?
Andreyy89

Answer:

I really liked this question. This gives me a lot to think about.

Explanation:

It depends on what age you are and if you are presently experiencing the hardship. If you are very young or very old, than it is my belief that people will pity you more than believe in you. If you are between 25-50 years old, I believe that people will expect more from you, and pity you less. If you had hardships in your past, people will expect more of you now, because you have gained form your experience. If not, they will not have as much confidence or expectations of you.
