In a "culture of honor," individuals

A) do not show signs of aggression or frustration, even when disrespected.
B) are expected to protect themselves and their property by whatever means necessary.
C) are willing to sacrifice their own social status in order to protect the honor of the community.
D) rely on a judicial system, penal codes, and law enforcement officers.


Answer: B
Rationale: Cultures of honor are social groups that expect individuals to protect themselves and their property by whatever means necessary. This perspective stands in contrast to cultures of law, which rely on a judicial system, penal codes, and law enforcement officers. In cultures of honor, individuals, especially males, are expected to react strongly to even mild insults or conflicts, just to ensure they do not lose social status or seem like pushovers in front of their community.
