Details:Deviance is simply any act that falls beyond our social norms. There are acts of deviance that many of us commit (like jaywalking) and acts that we likely never consider (like murder). In this lesson, we will explore tattoos and body modifications and the changing attitudes surrounding them by writing a short paper. Please respond to all of the following prompts: Define deviance. In what ways can deviant behavior bring about social change? Explore if tattoos and body modifications are still considered deviant or if these are now socially acceptable. Research tattoo acceptance in the workplace. Should individuals with visible tattoos be able to work in professional settings? Why or why not? Apply symbolic interactionism to how tattoos are viewed. (If needed, review Week 1. We covered this in our Week 1 discussion and Chapter 1 readings.) Using your textbook and additional resources, write a 1-2 page paper addressing the issues described above. Be certain to use interactionism in your analysis. Explain how symbolic interactionism relates to deviance.
