I didn't realize that it could be difficult for a sociologist to sort of stop viewing the world through a sociologist lens. It makes sense though since most have spent their lives studying this. It's similar to how vets study the behavior of dogs and then can't enjoy videos on the internet of dogs doing funny things or acting silly because they know what the dog is actually doing and why it is acting that way and it sometimes mean there is something wrong with the pet and most people are oblivious. It's interesting how many different social scientists can look at the same topic. For example, I didn't think it possible for anthropologists to have something to study when it comes to juvenile delinquency, but there is. They can look at the tools used in break in and burglaries.

I learned that feminists see rape as an extension of male normative behavior. Males also have been taught that they have sexual expectations which correspond with females and males having the expectation of having access to females. Pornography is also believed by feminists to push and normalize rape-culture. Revenge rape is up there with the ones having the most brutality which includes leaving the victim with serious injuries, beating them, and sometimes leads to murder. They use rape as a punishment or to "get even with them" Something that stuck with me is the quote "the rapist can seize what is not volunteered" this goes with the idea of accessibility and only pushes the idea that it is a very deliberate act.

Online shop has definitely had a huge impact, one that I've personally seen over time. I used to live in the Bay Area and moved to Stockton a couple years ago. When I was little there was a mall across the intersection that was right in front of my apartment building. It was where my mom and I would go to do quick shopping. It had everything a food court, clothing stores, shoe stores, a book store, places for kids to play, a Target and sears. Over time the mall became more and more desolate. It's going to close down soon and it will be replaced by some tech company. Everytime I visit my friends back home and we go to that mall to buy something quickly, it is always so empty with lots of old stores already shut down or have closing soon signs hung up on their doors. The Sears had been replaced with a JC Penny while I still lived there, but it didn't really change anything major. I personally online shop a lot more than going in person. I do miss the feeling of shopping in person sometimes, but I have social anxiety so I get overwhelmed easily with a lot of people around, so online shopping makes more sense to me.

Cooley's idea on the social self is that how we think of ourselves is based on how we think other's perceive us. It is quite interesting since if it's true then we don't really truly understand ourselves without other people around. I also learned from Mead that by doing this we need to see ourselves from the perspective of others. I also learned that Brands are not just brands they can show symbolic messages to those around us. Which now that I think of it is very true because I know for a fact that whenever someone has a Samsung instead of an iPhone my brain portrays them in a different light than people who have iPhones. I've noticed brands have become very personified. Companies give certain personality to their ads and such so much so that when someone says they like a certain brand people around them are more likely to associate them to that personality that the brand has.

I learned that the most basic form of return for sympathy is gratitude. I know a lot of times when my friends have gone through tough times or something happened and they tell me and I feel sympathy for them they typically thank me for listening to them. I think it makes sense people want a return when sympathy is given. It is amazing how much we analyze people without even realizing. We seek information about someone knew in order to know what to expect and what we think they will expect of us. We gather information about them from their appearance, clothing, maybe even hair style, and most importantly use information we previously have from others who were in some way similar to this new person. We also have to keep in mind that everyone else that is meeting this new person is probably doing the same in their head even though conflict is not likely to occur since they are keeping it to themselves.

At first it sounded as though Anna's case was leaning more towards the fact that she had some sort of mental delay in addition to the fact that she was basically a feral child. On the other hand, after hearing Isabelle's case and noting that she had a lot more help than Anna did it makes the chances of Anna actually having a mental delay less likely. It is pretty difficult to say though. I had heard of a similar case though I don't remember any exact details I think it was probably Anna's case. Even after hearing it for a second time I'm still not sure which is it and I don't think can ever say for certain. It was quite hard reading Chapter 14 as a girl. I'm Hispanic and in my culture boys are coddled way more than girls. They have their way constantly and in the eyes of our mothers they can do no wrong. While girls do have a lot more restrictions set on us in most cultures I would say it's even more strict on us in Hispanic culture. A lot of my friends and I were only allowed to go out in our later years of high school and it was still met by great resistance. Boys had been going out on their own or even with friends since middle school.

It makes sense why so many people love shopping, as I said before I do somewhat miss the feeling of shopping even though I get overwhelmed. It feels like you are part of the group and society when out and about doing the same thing as hundreds of others. When walking into a store you like, you see the others around you who also see interested in the same things you are interested in. It gives a sense of belonging and I never really could explain it until after reading this chapter. I also learned that social facts were similar to collective norms and that an example would be laws prohibiting shoplifting.

I actually watched the movie (multiple times) based on the Uruguayan rugby team that survived in the Andes mountains.

It is called Society of the Snow and I highly recommend it. The directors and actors worked closely with the survivors in order to make it as accurate as possible and it truly is an incredible story. I didn't realize that the definition of a person had to change before they had to eat their friends. It makes sense that once a person passes they are no longer a person only a body. It's already difficult to grasp that idea, I can't imagine having to do that and even more. I think also the appearance of the person is still there even if they might not actually be a person anymore, the fact that it still looks like them makes it a million times harder. It makes sense that they came up with a set of norms to fit in this sort of new normal that their days became. They were doing something that felt wrong, by law was wrong, and was wrong by their religion. They needed to have some order to what felt disorderly.

I had no idea real life could be reflected so much by the sports world. I'm not that into sports so I didn't know that their rules were written similarly and just as intricately as laws. It makes sense how the two parallel also. The way there are penalties in sports for players who break the rules is similar to how there is prison or fines one has to pay if the law is broken, both work to encourage people to play by the rules and discourage the breaking of the rules. Though it is not always seen when players break the rules or sometimes it isn't intentional unlike breaking laws. There is some leniency in that sense there's a lot of different ways it can become complicated unlike laws where they are more cut throat in my opinion which makes sense since they are more serious.

Ideology can mean a set of beliefs or ideas such as in political parties or it can mean the power held by the capitalist class. McDonaldization is a term I had never heard of before but I learned that it is coined from how McDonald's service system operates. The iron cage is basically a set of steps everyone must take. It can be quite bothersome to deal with therefore encourages the people who work/ fall under it to follow the rules. The biggest thing McDonaldization emphasizes is efficiency. I think this is what usually makes workers feel burnt out. The clock is usually ticking and long lines of people waiting for their food only adds to the pressure. Not to mention the fact that a lot of places are under staffed. It can be quite stressful trying to be efficient especially when you work resembles a factory. The other thing is calculability. Typically one worker does various steps and when you have multiple people behind a counter it can become hectic so you need to be calculated to be efficient.

The only brand that I can think of is Coke. My family and I have been drinking it for years as in it is our preferred soda at home and whatever restaurant we go to. I think that the thing it might teach it's consumers is that you typically will have fun drinking it. Typically a lot of the ads you see are people at a party whether it be a family or friends type of get together. I think people also who don't drink soda regularly mainly drink it a parties. I think that's also how it's portrayed as a fun drink that you have for everyone at parties. There was a campaign a couple years ago where on the coke bottles there were random names on it. I think that made it feel more personal since a lot of people could find their name and buy it. I think that it kind of has become common sense at this point, whenever you have a party, Coke is there as a beverage.

I believe the minimum wage should be higher especially with how our economy is right now. I also think it's great to have the right to unionize. I don't see a reason to be against it especially since the rights of workers in these types of jobs are often looked over or completely ignored.
