1.) A social construct is the titles that society uses to differentiate between people, places, and things. These social constructs do not actually physically exist. Society perceives something, such as, one should never ask a woman her age, males are stronger than females, race to differentiate between people, and too, the lines that are used to make up a map, and we as society just go along with the norm. Everyone knows that there are no physical lines on the ground that tell you that you have reached another state, we as society just know that we have reached another state.
