Your charge is to go out and break one of these social norms, not the illegal ones, but one that has less severe consequences; a folkway. It could be talking loudly on a cell phone in a quiet restaurant, farting in an elevator…and then talking about it, talking to people at the bus stop, dancing in an isle at Vons while singing loudly to whatever is playing over the Musak, or anything that will make people look at you like you’re doing something different or out of the ordinary.
I want you to mentally note (or record) things about the experience. How did people react? What emotions did you feel? Were you uncomfortable? Were you amused? Were the people reacting the way you thought they would? Did anyone verbalize approval or disapproval of your behavior? Think about the norm you are violating and why we have been conditioned to feel that the behavior is inappropriate in our culture. What is the function of the rule or rules that are in place? Who, if anyone, is benefiting from the promotion or demotion of the behavior? Who might the promotion or demotion be affecting negatively? How do the norms you are addressing influence group interaction?
