Question 5

Ideology is the common ideas about the way people should behave or the way things should be. This ideology is formed by hegemony, which is an institution that constructs and sustains the ideology. Hegemony can include government, religion, family, law, and media. In The Urinal Game, these concepts are displayed through the ideology of what is proper men's urinal etiquette. These rules are determined by the hegemony, which in the context of The Urinal Game would be the correct answers that the game supplies to the scenarios given. These become the ideology of what should be seen as common sense.
