Deviance

This week in class we have been talking about deviance. An example in class was when we watched Seinfeld. When Jerry was scratching his nose, it looked to the model like he was picking it. This was socially wrong because it's gross and bad hygiene. Another example from class, could be a man wearing a dress. People would look at it like it was weird and not normal to the society because it goes again a "manly" stereotype. Those people are bullied because of them acting like a girl. The people who are bullied sometimes cause school shootings. They are getting revenge for those people who made fun of them and bullied them. People don't realize that a lot of things they say can affect people. People need to be more aware of what they say and make people feel more socially accepted. Even the smallest positive thing you can think of, could really make a difference in someone's day.
