social distance

Explanation:

Social distance explains the level of intimacy between two individuals or groups based on the likeness in beliefs and social categories of these individuals or groups. Social distance measurements are observed in groups such as social class, race/ethnicity, gender or sexuality. Example: people of same race or ethnicity have less social distance between one another.
