Master Status and Role Sets

The National Organization for Women described marriage as a true partnership that (supposed) to hold an equitable sharing of the responsibilities of home and children. A force that automatically entitles a woman to lifelong support by a man upon her marriage and that home and family are primarily a woman's world and responsibility; hers to dominate, his to support.

While my friends are still the friends I used to have, I’ve stopped hanging out with the mean ones. My other friends have kind of broken away and we’ve started a new group where the “leaders” are not jerks to Gracie and I. Now I know I can trust the people I love without getting stabbed in the back and then having a broken heart.

Role relationships are governed by behavioral expectations, and not much was expected of Victor as a kid. Role requirements give purpose, meaning, direction and guidance to one’s life. Role relationships are generally reciprocal, like a parent- child relationship (Thoits 1). For example, Victor was the child in this relationship with his father, however the behavioral expectations didn’t parallel.

These relationships go beyond many other types in requiring participants to trust each other enough to give up or receive some kind of power in relation to the other. Even when the dominant/submissive dynamic isn’t as revalent, there is a level of trust and communication that is

You walk through the hallway at school being called names, being mocked, and getting laughed at. People hold their arms in positions to mock the way you play your horn. You get called “Band Nerd” or “Geek” or “Loser”, and the scrutiny is sometimes overbearing. But as you reach the end of the hallway, you meet your group of friends that have become like family to you. You’ve spent an unreasonable amount of time in the scorching heat together, and you’ve spent late nights on the bus playing games and falling asleep. You all learn from each other, teach each other, help each other, and become part of something bigger than yourself together. You become family. You are a band member. Do the people who

Part B. Analyzing your own life; discuss your status in terms of ascribed status, achieved status, and master status. For each of these statuses, discuss the roles that you play. Give one example of role strain and role conflict from your own experience. Thinking about the future, which role do you think will cause you the most difficulty in terms of role exit? Why?

Now, people are reluctant to admit that, but you see it, you know you don’t see them socializing together. You know the real test, you don’t see them going to church together, you know.” Nevertheless, the consequences of this reality is that it forces one to stay with

Working with highly respected and influential individuals, being continually challenged by your craft are boons to one’s career. Leadership continually evolves; however, there are elements that remain permanently anchored in this definition such as respect, purpose, collaboration, heart, trust, and spirit. Carefully managing team synergy, harmonizing its dynamics, and maximizing the advantages of diversity in order to achieve collective success are challenges we should strive to undertake; therefore, I humbly and respectfully request to be considered for a Command Master Chief position.

Richard Conville (1991) describes the constantly changing, evolving nature of relationships as a cycle in which partners move through a series of stages, returning to ones they previously encountered, although at a new level (p.80). Adler and Proctor (2014) emphasize although they have formally bonded, the relationship will probably ship from one dimension of a relational dialectics to another and forward or backward along the spectrum of stages (p.267). Adler, Proctor and Conville both make great points about love

As for myself, there are several reasons why the “marital tie” is critically important to me. The marital tie has a great influence of what my husband and I bring to our marriage. Considering our exposure to our parents’ marriage and our grandparents’ marriage, these elements, experiences, values and behaviors are integrated not only in our marriage but in the life of my children as well. At this point of my life, I think I am culturally sensitive of the “husband-wife” team and the role that our children play as well. Recognizing my relationship with my husband is different than others (children, extended family), it encourages me to be my husband’s partner and be a resource to each other’s needs. On the other hand my children play a different role in our life. Not only does my husband and I parent (raise, guide, discipline, love) our children, but we acknowledge they will be leaving our home one day and utilize the “life” tools we tried to teach

Everyone has struggled with their identity and belonging during a chapter of their life. There comes a time when our opinions and beliefs begin to differ from those around us. During this time, some people may discover which relationships they belong in, and those which they may not. However relationships are important

Exploring different aspects of yourself in the different areas of life has never been so pertinent. As previously mentioned, there has undoubtedly been a shift of roles when comparing the past to the present. Traditionally speaking, men and women’s roles have been that of providers and nurturers respectively. Although through time, these traditional mentalities have transformed, allowing for more possibilities. Even though men’s roles have altered, women have emancipated themselves from a very narrow view of appropriate social norms and can now enjoy the freedom to choose from an array of roles.

In my opinion, I feel like I have already passed Erikson’s stage of Identity vs. Role Confusion. Up until two years ago, I was however still in the midst of that phase. I was not troubled by the development of an ethnic or religious identity, but I was definitely trying to understand what to do with my life in general. I especially had two concerns: understanding what career I wanted to pursue and whether I wanted to go back to my native country. In these two years I have undertaken many different experiences that allowed me to grow tremendously and that really helped me to understand what my life goals are. In fact, I understood that I want to pursue a career in the healthcare field, more specifically I dream to become an orthopedist, that I would like to keep living in the United States at least until the
