Deviance: Crash Course Sociology #18

Показать описание

What is social deviance? Who defines what is deviant and how to people come to behave that way? Today we’re going to explore biological and psychological approaches to explaining deviance, including what each perspective can bring to the table, and their inherent limitations. From there, we’ll explain the sociological perspective and the social foundations of deviance.

I remember when I was in college I took a sociology of deviance course. It was one of the highlights of my degree. I remember writing a paper on the cannibal fetish online community and how it functioned. Life is strange.

Left-handedness was considered negatively deviant in the past. Any lefties here were set right by their elders?

Dear Crash Course:

Nicole is AWESOME. Please let her host more series! ;-)

The units on deviance were my absolute favorite from my college Sociology courses. It's a riot to dig into deviance, from the progressive to the damaging to the ridiculous, especially when we got to do projects in acting out and documenting the response to deviance. My friend and I took the ridiculous route, and we spent a couple hours with me wheeling her around campus in a wheelbarrow while she played the Pokemon theme song badly on her clarinet. It's not exactly the deviance most people think of, but it's certainly not normal, and our professor got a kick out of it.

I really enjoyed this and shared it with my deviant friends.

I really appreciate the content of your talks-but the hyper tempo and clipping of normal pauses in speech is, for me,
very stressing. It leaves no time for reflection on the ideas you present. It may be trendy to present one´s
ideas in this style- But a little breathing room between thoughts would help me be able to evaluate your ideas.
Thank you for your efforts.

I honestly believe that who you are is based on a mixture of nature & nurture that creates who you are, based on repetition so to speak, but we do have free will, & it's not going against other peoples judgment, it's about going against your own, which is possible.

You don't have a time machine, you can't change the past, you do have free will, so you can choose your future.
