  1. Equal Rights in Shops with Expensive Products:

    1. Theoretical Equality: In principle, all individuals have the right to visit any shop in a marketplace.

    2. Real-life Dynamics: High-end shops might create an intimidating atmosphere, affecting equal access.

    3. Implicit Bias: Perceptions based on appearance or buying capacity might lead to differential treatment.

    4. Customer Profiling: Certain individuals may face monitoring or questioning based on demographics or attire, impacting their comfort.

    For example, a person’s appearance or attire might influence their treatment in high-end shops, impacting their equal access despite theoretical rights. Social perceptions and implicit biases can affect individuals’ experiences in shops selling expensive products.
