Height has social value.

Many studies show that taller people earn more and are more successful.

Some societies value height as a beneficial social characteristic

So, should we be giving growth hormone , in a safe, controlled dose to all children under a certain percentile?

What are the ethical and biological issues?

I am looking for any studies on this topic and will be grateful if anyone could suggest some essential works done on this topic, especially in the field of anthropology and psychology. 

Happy for insights

I am writing a research essay around the topic of single, heterosexual males using surrogates to have children. I'm interested in hearing what psychologists and experts on the topic of surrogacy have to say regarding the normality of this.

A relação entre o ruido urbano e a forma como os diversos atores sociais com ele se relacionam tem vindo a ser negligenciada dentro do seio académico (em especial dentro de áreas como a sociologia, antropologia e estudos urbanos). Por certo que, dentro do horizonte das ideias, ligada a uma relação bilateral entre as paisagens socialmente construidas e a evolução das cidades, existem algumas produções (como a de Carlos Fortuna; Augoyard e Torgue; Halligan e Hegarty; entre outros), mas ainda existe alguma falta no sentido da normalização (ou naturalização de G. Simmel) entre os sons e o meio urbano.

Assim, gostaria de perguntar se, dentro dos constrangimentos que a globalização permite, conhecem mais produções dentro desta área?

Obrigado pelo tempo.

Dear frds,

is Maslow's hierarchy of needs a global concept, also empirically proven for e.g. animistic tribes, Buddhism and Hinduism?

Or is it on the contrary shaped by enlightenment, industrialization, and consumerism in the Western hemisphere?

Cherish your expertise.

Specifically, I'll be interviewing people in a community where the idea of fluid gender is likely scoffed at by most people. However, I still need to know their self-identified genders, so I have to find a way to ask without also distancing myself from them through the very act of asking. For instance, a participant might not only not believe in gender fluidity but also be insulted that I would even ask because that would imply that I can't tell if they consider themselves to be a woman or a man or something else. For those with experience in this sort of environment, how do you ask the question?
