One example of groupthink in our society would be cults. In cults people do things based on the ideas of the group. Cults draw people in and then twist that person’s views to fit the ideas of the group or cult. The people involved in these cults never stand up for their personal views or question the ideas or teachings of the cult for fear they will be singled out or that they will anger members of the group. Another example of groupthink is the treatment of women in other cultures. In certain cultures around the world women are treated as though they are not entitled to the same rights as men. Women in these cultures are not allowed to receive an education or to seek employment. These cultures degrade women and others in these cultures just go along with the unfair treatment of women. No one in these cultures question the way women are treated.

I believe Suave product commercials are very effective. They are so effective that I even tried the products. The products really do hold up during the normal stressful day. The products are also very well priced like stated in the commercials. So in my opinion, any commercial that advertises something that is completely true and is also a very reliable product is an example of good advertising.

For example, in the short story “A Good Man Is Hard to Find”, the grandmother character is very strong-willed about wanting to go to east Tennessee. She tries every suggestion she can think of to persuade her family to change their minds about going to Florida. Another example, in the short story “How Far She Went”, the grandmother in this story continues on with her routine no matter what disruption her granddaughter causes for her.
