In Slide 2 of the Diversity power point (Week 1), we were introduced to 8-year-old Desmond Napoles of Brooklyn, N.Y., who danced in the New York City Pride March on Sunday, June 28, 2015. Those who were critical of his mother allowing Desmond, a biological male, to participate in the Pride March are likely:
A. to be uncomfortable with the marking function of Desmond’s clothing choice because of their socialization into the dominant belief in the sex-gender binary; they are unsure of how they are supposed to interact with Desmond.
B. to think that sexual orientation is a choice that people make when they decide to become sexually active.
C. to think that a biological male who is allowed to wear more feminine clothing will be socialized into becoming homosexual.
D. All of the above are possible social motivations for the criticism directed against Desmond’s mother.
