dizzywind_I enjoyed reading about the difference between public vs. private deviance (p 139). I feel like a relatable example of discreditable deviance is the idea of mental health, and how it can be sometimes very difficult to see how someone is truly feeling. It's upsetting how many stay "hidden" because of the worry that they will be treated differently once they reveal their "deviant" condition. #so345
ILoveDawgsWoof@dizzywind_ I think this idea can be applied to a lot of stigmatized identity characteristics. Some individuals are forced to play into different labels so they do not face the stigma from their “deviant” own. #so345
