Social Stratification


On the left theres a picture of Blake Lively modeling for channel, she isn't a millionaire but she has money and class and is placed in a high social class category. The girl in the right picture however, is on an advertisement for prostitutes to become a "sugar baby" instead. She is pretty just like Blake Lively but the difference is that she probably doesn't have the money Blake Lively does, otherwise she wouldn't be on the sugar baby advertisement therefor the girl on the right is placed in a lower social class category. This is an example of how class and money can cause social stratification in society resulting in dividing people into different social groups.
