Answer 1

The social-conflict approach highlights the role of power differentials in the construction and enforcement of gender and sexual norms, viewing sexuality as a socially constructed concept rather than a biological determinant...

Step-by-step explanation:

The social-conflict approach emphasizes that sexuality is an area where power differentials are evident and dominant groups actively enforce their worldview and economic interests. From this perspective, gender and sexuality are socially constructed, with society's cultural appropriateness influencing people's perceptions and experiences of sexuality. This contrasts with biological determinism, which attributes behavioral differences to biology. Sociologists study how sexual attitudes and practices vary across cultures, given the conservative nature of U.S. society towards these issues, and how cultural norms shape and reflect the social system of sexuality, including inconsistencies and inequalities.
