Deviance is behaviors, traits, and beliefs that are seen as breaking common norms in a society that has a negative reaction. I put this picture of my friend Jacob wearing make-up, in society it would be seen as breaking a common norm because men aren't suppose to wear make-up, this would most likely have a negative reaction from society.
Deviance Avowal
Deviance avowal is when one associates themselves to be a certain way, as being deviant, and gives themselves their own label such as a punk would do.
Crime
A crime is a violation of a norm, that has been noted as a violation by the justice system, and is unaccepted in society. For example, I choose this picture of these boys committing a crime by smoking weed. This is seen as a crime, and they could easily be punished for this act.
Violent crime
A violent crime is when someone does something physically abusive to another, violent crimes are means to and end or an objective to a situation. So naturally I choose this picture of me beating up poor Natalie.
Property CrimeA violent crime is when someone does something physically abusive to another, violent crimes are means to and end or an objective to a situation. So naturally I choose this picture of me beating up poor Natalie.
A property crime isn't usually violent but can have terrible reprocussions, such as jail time. So I used this example of arson.
