Explanation / Answer
1. The discrimination where a health club refuses to hire an obese person as a personal trainer would not end even if they open their own club and come in competition. As people would not prefer such clubs in which the people giving you advice to lose weight are themselves overweight.
2. Yes, with an increase in competition, discrimination can be reduced in this case. Suppose there are 2 company and one of them is discriminating against the senior citizens to work in computer store whereas the other one take tests for hiring the senior citizens also then, the competition would increase and the discrimination would decrease and the first company would also start some sort of tests to hire senior citizens.
3. If a school starts hiring male teachers also for the first grade, there would be an increase in the competition as there is no evidence that men are not warm and caring. If the performance by the schoool and the students in first grade taught by men is better than the other school, other schools would also start hiring men also as first grade teachers and the discrimination would decrease.
