The significance behind this question is the overall idea of putting others first. When contemplating a course of action I always think to myself if it would only benefit me or others as well. It is important to put others before yourself in certain situations. In the context that a big number of people will be hurt you must think to yourself, "what is the next best approach?". It is vital you look at the greater scheme of things, as long as you stay loyal to your beliefs.

Another ethics framework I researched is feminist ethics. HIstorically, men have been privileged, no matter the social class. This ethic focuses on re-routing the common opressive practices that harm others, focusing on the ethic of "doing things". Feminist ethics can be expressed in multiple different ways and overall universal principles.
