Western missionaries interpreted tahitians dances as immoral and in 1820 outlawed any practice associated with dancing. tahitian dances, though, serve a powerful purpose to enforce gender distinctions. why is this important to tahitian society, and how are gender roles enforced through dance?

The Tahitian society had to depend on the dominance of breeding to balance a capital number for the existence of the society.

Explanation:

A tribe never accepts  the culture of an outsider so easily and tend to strictly follow their norms. In such a state, the gender distinctions to Tahitian society was very important  as they weren't ready to settle with newcomers or were not willing to move to another tribe or place either. They had to look upon the authority of breeding to balance the population for the existence of the society. And this gender roles are refined and enforced by pure difference in the dance movements allotted for the men and the women.

sorry. my computer broke down and i had about 3 doctor's appointments. i'm just catching up now after reinstalling a router.

i think you best answer to this is d. some film directors were very picky about roles and lighting and and which side of the face the camera should catch. they were also picky about sound and background noise and chatter and music and all sorts of what we would consider trivial things. a stage director has to have all this ironed out before the curtain goes up. if he doesn't he better do it soon. if he doesn't notice, critics soon will, and they are not a very nice bunch.

e: both have the power to ask for rewrites. theater directors are always yammering about act 2.

c is true. both can ask for any number of things during rehearsals. the reason i wouldn't pick c is because a film director can make changes anytime during shooting, including when he thinks they ought to be done shooting.

b i didn't know what blocking was and i can't find a good description. if you have one and think b is true, go for it.

a a film director quite frequency chooses the leading lady or man. he may not have the final word, but he chooses. sometimes a theater director has no choice. a is generally not true.
