aps1019In chapter 8, I found it very interesting to learn about the coping mechanisms that people use to deal with their deviant label and also about the distinction between the discredited and the discreditable. I think that the distinction between if a person's deviant actions are known or not really makes me question how much I really know about a person. It makes me wonder how many people I have encountered in my life that may have been labeled as deviant, yet I may have never known it #so345
matluvr@aps1019 That stood out to me too. The idea of discredited vs. discreditable really shows how deviance isn’t just about behavior, it’s about visibility and social perception. It kind of highlights how many people are constantly managing parts of their identity depending on who they’re around, which makes you realize we probably know much less about others experiences than we think. #so345
