Critical Thinking Ch. 17 Questions
1. Sociologists use the term master status to describe a status that dominates others and thereby determines a person's general position in society. To what degree can that term be applied to the three groups considered in this chapter? (explain your answer)
2. The media---in advertisements, humor, dramas, and situational comedies---portray life in society. What are some examples, both positive and negative, of how older adults, people with disabilities, and gays and lesbians are presented in the media that you have seen? In what ways are these groups stereotyped? (explain answers in detail)
3. How might advances in technology, including innovations for the home and computer chat rooms, have a unique effect on each of the groups trying to overcome exclusion discussed in this chapter?
4. How do policy makers trying to bring about change use the model of "half full" and "half empty"---either to argue for change on behalf of minorities or to use the same concepts to maintain that the status quo is adequate for addressing issues of social inequality?
Minimum two paragraph for each question.
