Module 04 Written Assignment - Break a Norm Experiment Essay

Rasmussen College

G142/SYG1000 Section 03: Introduction to Sociology


Sociologists use the term "deviance" to characterize behavior that goes against cultural

norms. The expectations and guidelines that drive our behavior, appearance, etiquette, gestures,

body language, conduct, and other aspects of our lives are known as norms. When it comes to

these topics, I have noticed a pattern that I would like to break. Men should conduct

house repairs and be the ones to work and earn money, while women are expected to take care of

the household and children, according to the norm I chose to break. I chose this because this

norm has personally affected my life when discussing it with my family and friends.

To start, the appropriate behavior would be normalizing women being able to take care of

the responsibilities inside the home, including cooking, cleaning, and children, but also being

able to handle situations outside of the home such as house repairs and supporting themselves

financially without the help of a man. When you travel to more southern parts of the states, this is

not normalized or even brought up for a conversation about changing their views. I was

taught growing up that men are the breadwinners. I find this to be very degrading. I am a single

adult woman who has been financially independent since turning eighteen. My behavior towards

this norm has always been to break it simply because all women do not need men to support

them. Men are more likely than ever to endorse the concept of gender equality, but traditional

values still reign supreme at home. My family had shied away from these views they once had

after seeing my perspective about normalizing this matter, whereas before, their reaction was not

well received from my end. By breaking this norm, it caused a rift and lots of judgment from

family members.
