Entry 3

Item 1: Croatia Chief's Anti-Gay Remarks Spark Protests

Markovic said in an interview with the Vecernji List newspaper published on Sunday that as long as he's in charge of the national soccer federation, a gay player "certainly" will not feature for Croatia.

Asked if he had ever encountered a gay soccer play, he replied: "No. Fortunately, only healthy people play football."

- Discrimination

-Analysis :

As we can see from Croatia Chief's words, these is the discrimination against not only gay but also homosexual. In particular, he shows his personal prejudice with gay, even that expresses in action which is his anti gay remark on newspaper. He said that he would not accept a gay player because of “only healthy people play football". It means that gay is not healthy, which is reek of discrimination.

Item 2: Picture

-Type of bias: discrimination

-Analysis:

From the picture, it is thought that the Indian who are bad and are considered as pets make others scare of although they do not nothing. They try to push them away or even kill them. This is the racism and it is unfair behavior between the white and the Indian. The skin may be different but everyone must be treated equally.

Item 3: Con gái giỏi hơn !

Trong những năm 1970-2000, tại Mỹ, số học sinh gái vào các trường cao đẳng và đại học tăng 136 phần trăm, số nữ sinh viên theo học tiếp hệ master tăng 168 phần trăm và số nữ sinh các ngành đặc biệt như luật và y khoa (điểm đầu vào cao hơn, thời gian học lâu hơn)-tăng tới 853 phần trăm

Sinh viên nữ xuất sắc hơn

-Assumption

-This conclusion is limited for some reasons. Firstly, what is the standard and the point to have that result. And how many girl students are equivalent to these percentages 136% & 853%? It is impossible to conclude that girl students are better without detailed numbers. Besides, these are just American girl student results, but the conclusion is for all girl students. One more thing, some subjects having features which are suitable for only boys or girls. For example, in technical subject, boy students have a tendency to be better than girl students.

  2. well-done!however,I have some comment for you:
    +> item 1: I think there is no difference between gay and homosexual.
    +> item 2: it's ok but you shouldn't use a complicated sentence like "it is thought that the Indian who are bad and are considered as pets make others scare of although they do not nothing"
    +> item 3: I agree with you on the equivalence to these percentages because the number of girl students maybe much less than boy. I think you also have a bias when you say "some subjects having features which are suitable for only boys or girls"

  4. Hi! In general, your entry is pretty good! and here are my comments
    Item 1: i believe that it is not discrimination because Vecernji just showed his negative feelings of gay but he did not do anything specific against that. It just prejudice
    Item 2: I agree with you on this item, but you should not just summarize what happen in the picture, analysis better.
    Item 3: I agree with Hien, you did very well on this item

    Thanks for your entry!
