Society

 I realize that society have alot of affect on an individual.Reading chapter 3 open my eyes to society in a different way.In society everybody has a role and society expect that we live up to them roles.We  live in the same society but we are different in alot of ways.We group with people who has the same characteristic as ourselves.What really struck me was  the behavior of impression management.Erving Goffman talks about how people change not only because of other people's reactions but also of the actively try to present ourselves to other people.(Goffman1959).For example the way I act when am with my friends.,joking,acting out  thats not the way I would be acting at work.We act a certain way because we know our peers approve of it.
