Deviance.........

saturday morning while working at my job i notice a men was been deviant in the way that he is breaking a gender behavior.I say this because this men was with his wife and he was wearing a purse instead of his wife.It was funny and weird seeing a men with a purse.But then when it got the time to charge them in the cashier for their groceries they gave an explanation why he was caring that purse.He told his wife, " omg, you always give me your purse to carry it and people are going to think im from the other path way (gay)." his wife only laughed and i did to.Because he said he always has to carry it.He was been deviant at first for breaking a social norm by doing a opposite gender job that make people look at him weird and see him as a un normal person for having a female object.

This story is related to sociology because in society many people act deviant.Deviant is breaking a social norm that make you be seen as un normal or weird.
