Causes of the transgender problems in society The term transgender describes individuals who identify as a gender other than the one the society assigned to them based on their sexual organs. Many transgender individuals experience depression and anxiety because their gender is not reflected in the way people interpret their bodies. Transgender people undergo severe mental, emotional, and physical relief when they use names or pronouns aligning with their gender identity instead of their assigned gender. Their problems are worsened by how society treats the group by denying them their rights and freedom to activities such as employment. The civil rights mass actions of the 1950s and 1960s, led to the end racially segregated bathrooms and increased the recognition of the diversity in society. As a result, laws like the Americans with Disability Act were formed, and consequently, disabled persons had restrooms that easily accessible. Similarly, society recognizes the existence of LGBTQ issues, and significant progress has been made regarding discrimination and same-sex marriages. Given the awareness, it is time that society embraced transgender individuals in all public places, including…
No culture is morally superior to others I disagree with this statement because I believe that no single culture is more superior, but our perspectives are. For example, Western culture has largely been portrayed as more superior and acceptable than other cultures. Moral relativism occurs where what is right or wrong is defined based on a particular standpoint without due regard for others. This allows one section of the society to be seen more highly ranking than others and more privileged. People over attribute their own traits and moral virtues as more acceptable than that of others, which is quite unfair. I feel that this is what has caused more divisions in Western society because of its heterogeneous nature. This causes conflicts between dominant and emerging cultures. In fact, there is no standard to moral truth as dominant groups want the lesser dominant groups to think and behave.

The amount of force used is termed reasonable if it is the bare minimum amount of force that is require to protect oneself from an aggressor. Since different situations call varying amount of force, we consider force reasonable if a reasonable person would have acted in a like manner if they were faced by a similar circumstance.

Use of reasonable force is justified in situations where one needs to protect themselves or other parties from perceived assailants.

Solutions to Effects of Culture on Discrimination Introduction It is worth depicting that culture plays a crucial role in generation perception towards specific ethnic or racial groups. Furthermore, the cultural differences among races are illustrated to be instrumental in facilitating feelings of discriminating against others. Therefore, it can be ascertained that African-Americans are exposed to all forms of discrimination due to cultural notions that are rooted in the minds of whites in the United States. Hence, in European nations and during the colonial era, discrimination against blacks was based on cultural superiority over them. The whites tend to develop perceptions that they are cultural superior towards blacks; hence, the reason behind the intense discriminative activities (Anderson 71). Consequently, it is reasonable to maintain that discrimination is heavily influenced by cultural beliefs and practices; however, the implementation of multicultural education and anti-discriminative laws and policies help in its elimination. Background Cultural racism can be termed as the consequences of discrimination and prejudices among specific individuals in the society that arise due to differences in cults and practices between races and ethnic…
