Brutus believes that men enjoy watching professional football and that women are categorically distinct from men. his gender stereotypes are so strong, however, that he mistakenly reasons from these premises the illogical conclusion that women do not enjoy watching professional football. his reasoning difficulty best illustrates:
a. the framing effect.
b. the availability heuristic.
c. belief bias.
d. functional fixedness.

The correct answer is c. Belief Bias

Explanation:

Belief bias is defined as a tendency to judge the arguments based merely in the plausibility of the conclusion and not because of the strenght of the arguments that leads to that conclusion, in this case, Brutus is not reasoning the premises and mistakenly ignores the logical chain because of his strong gender stereotypes and end up in a belief bias mainly because of them and not taking other factor that might prove his original and biased belief wrong.

freeborn women in ancient rome were citizens (cives), but could not vote or hold political office. because of their limited public role, women are named less frequently than men by roman historians. but while roman women held no direct political power, those from wealthy or powerful families could and did exert influence through private negotiations. exceptional women who left an undeniable mark on history range from lucretia and claudia quinta, whose stories took on mythic significance; fierce republican-era women such as cornelia, mother of the gracchi, and fulvia, who commanded an army and issued coins bearing her image; women of the julio-claudian dynasty, most prominently livia (58 bc-ad 29), who contributed to the formation of imperial mores; and the empress helena (c.250–330 ad), a driving force in promoting christianity.

women in the ancient greek world had few rights in comparison to male citizens. unable to vote, own land, or inherit, a woman’s place was in the home and her purpose in life was the rearing of children. this, though, is a general description, and when considering the role of women in ancient greece one should remember that information regarding specific city-states is often lacking, is almost always from male authors, and only in athens can their status and role be described in any great detail. neither are we sure of the practical and everyday application of the rules and laws that have survived from antiquity. we do know that spartan women were treated somewhat differently than in other states. for example, they had to do physical training like men, were permitted to own land, and could drink wine.

no because it could make the world a terrible place to live in.
