in 1998, matthew shepard was tortured and murdered in an anti - gay hate crime in wyoming. shepards case brought international attention to an extreme form of:
homophobia
misogyny
gender roles
gender identity

Explanation:

• The Kinsey Scale is a six - point rating system (ranging from 0 - exclusively heterosexual to 6 - exclusively homosexual) developed by Alfred Kinsey to measure sexual orientation. It is not about measuring a "loved one" in a personal - guide sense, not a religious test, and not an instructional manual on behavior.
• Matthew Shepard's murder was a hate crime motivated by anti - gay sentiment. Homophobia is the fear, hatred, or discrimination against homosexuals. Misogyny is hatred of women, gender roles are about societal expectations of gendered behavior, and gender identity is about a person's internal sense of their gender.

Answer:

• For the Kinsey Scale question: A six - point rating system that ranges from exclusively heterosexual to exclusively homosexual orientation.
• For the Matthew Shepard question: Homophobia.
