Deviant Behavior

In the Middle East society men can hold hands while walking down the street, but homosexuality is still illegal.  Most of the United States homosexuality is legal and support is better as time goes on.  Older people in the United States can accept it in society, but personally do not understand it and find it deviant.  Another form of deviancy is in a form of music, while soul, country, and rock n’ roll are accepted in society.   Rap amongst some people are considered deviant by classing themselves outside of the norm of society, making it deviant to a large class of people.  Another form of deviancy is when poor people and minorities commit crimes, even murder; because of their classification of they would be considered deviant. 

If a person of high society or wealth committed these crimes it would be considered the norm of society because when you have money, it would be much more accepted in society.  In the norm people with wealth and upper society would not consider as deviant.  They would consider as sick or mentally ill, while people with lower class and poor people are considered deviant.  The wealthy class of society, having upper class is not considered as bad as lower class society as if they were guilty of the same crimes.  People of wealth and upper class society are in the media more because they are powerful and rich, the poor people of lower society by upper society are considered to be more out of the norm of society.
