Deviance in Cosmetics Alyson Luno SOCI 3501-001 Murphy University of Memphis What is deviance? Per Perspectives on Deviance and Social Control, it has no simple definition (Inderbitzin, Bates, and Gainey 2015). Previously, the term deviance had been a "catch-all" rubric for discussing the "Big Four" types of rule or norm violation: crime and delinquency, mental illness and other psychological problems, drug use and addiction, and homosexuality and other sexual misbehaviors (Holstein 2009).
