distinguishing physical characteristics.
c. To be a member ofa specific culture, an individual must have certain identifiable

Physical characteristics are not used to identify cultural groups; there is a difference between
the two, and they are considered separately. Physical characteristics should not be used to
identify members ofcultural groups. To be a member ofa specific culture, an individual does
not need to have certain identifiable physical characteristics. You should not confuse physical
characteristics with cultural characteristics. Gender and race are physical characteristics, not
cultural characteristics, and are not used to identify cultural groups.
