My name is Kristen Clay and as I was going through the details of this course I realized that it is truly difficult for sociologists to achieve true value neutrality due to the involvement of too many dimensions. Most people are unaware of the fact that sociology is considered to be a value free science and this understanding is connected with the difficulty that has been talked about here. There are multiple angles to it. Sociology is the study of humans under certain social constrictions and so nothing in particular can be termed as right or wrong or neutral also.
