I am excited about the posts this week. I find this chapter very useful for a number of reasons. The first relating to the question posed about the Social Constructionist Perspective. The Social Constructionist Perspective assumes we see the world in a certain way and because of certain things. We build our world through our experiences and our symbolic, constructed reality.
Would you agree that we see our world through cultural blinders?
Do we follow 'social rules'? If so, what are examples of rules?
Does this approach have limitations?
Until later...

I think we do see our world through cultural blinders that are provided as a result of the media and political perspectives. Though culturally I find we are more alike than different.
We follow alot of different social rules in our everyday life. A social rule I can think of is the act of going to work to earn a living each day.
I think the limitations depend on how you look at it and if you see it as limitations or cultural constraints rather than just a way of life.
