B. Discuss the prevalence and significance of these same archetypes in the ethics and morals and/or the roles of individuals in societies of contemporary culture (e. g., the roles of women have been influenced by archetypes of women in myths). Support your discussion with specific examples.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question does not provide the archetypes or any other reference, the discussion about the prevalence and significance of these same archetypes in the ethics and morals and/or the roles of individuals in societies of contemporary culture could be seen with the following perspective.

Society still follows archetypes from the past because it is what people have learned throughout time. It is not easy to ask people to change because change scares most of the individuals in a society. It seems that people feel safe in their comfort zone.

So people in modern societies still following the traditional concepts about morals and ethics, although these could be questioned by everything we are learning about how politicians, businessmen, actors, and other powerful people have a dome in the past.

Unfortunately, many preconceived views still affect women in society and minorities such as African Americans and immigrants. And this has to change, otherwise, it would be more than obvious that people still support the double moral, instead of trying to be consistent with what it is really fair, honest, and ethical.
