This doesnt belong to me..postivie deviance

As we all know during this season the wind becomes really bad and things start to fly all over if they are not tied down. When i came home from school today i noticed some garbage cans laying in my yard. I knew right away these were not my garbage can because they were a different color. Most people would just leave the garbage cans where they are and wait for the owners to come get them for themselves. For me today, this was not the case. I decided to do an act of positive deviance and bring my neighbors their garbage cans, i brought them from my yard up to their garage door. It was nice to help some one else out because i would hope that someone would do the same back towards me. I hope my neighbors will be thankful for the help they recieved. These acts of positive deviance can change someones day and alter moods because they are things that we do positively that are out of the norms of society. The more we do these acts the better a community can become.

Gender roles play an important role in some peoples life because it shapes who they are. The media has become more and more important in this socializing agent as well. Media suggests that girls should be more into shopping and dolls  and boys should be more into video games and sports. Although people may want this to be true, it certainly is not and now a days its changing more and more. In my family i am surronded by girls, i have a younger sister, many girl cousins as well as only 3 boy first cousins. This has made an impact in what i was to play with while growing up. As i am now graduating high school, who i am and how i categorize my self has changed. I wouldnt say im a girly girl but i wouldnt say im a tomboy. I do hang out with many girls but i also have many guy friends. As the society and community around us keeps changing so do we. So next time some body tells you that "girls cant do that" challenge them by asking why not?
