Question

Discuss two ways in which some cultural views that exist may effect a relationship negatively

Answer 1

Answer:

Many times, the different cultural parameters of a society can exert a negative influence on interpersonal relationships within it. Thus, general behavior patterns may contain within themselves certain defects that lead to the generation of conflicts between individuals. For example, in the case of the United States, the strong cultural tendency toward individualism can cause two people to clash when their personal interests are in conflict (rather than the two working together to achieve a common good). Another example is the serious defect of American society around the economic valuation of people, which tends to belittle or discriminate against those individuals with a lower socioeconomic status, generating conflicts or interpersonal clashes between the different social classes.
