Society influences us in ways we cannot even begin to comprehend. Language itself frames our understanding of the world around us.

What you wear, What language you speak, What kind of education you have, What kind of music you like, What kind of job you have, what standing you have in your community, what kind of haircut you have, your nonverbal communication, child rearing practices, tastes in food, your religion, even your physical body is influenced by society. Nearly every aspect of your being is a product of society.

We don't have as much control over our beliefs and attitudes as we'd like to. The truth is that almost nothing about you or me is entirely unique.

im sorry did you just use the child hood game "simon says" to make a point which makes no sense, how does that game live on in media,friends and parents? and so escape from what? and no one waits for an order someone steps up to retain order, and you rather be "simon" the one who gives the orders then to serve? you obviously have not thought of the consequences simon must face, the stress and fear, if you are to discuss my question then do so intelligently not with random bullcrap stringed together in a way it makes you sound somewhat intelligent when you are far from it.
