arrow If you are under 16- please do not take this survey.
arrow Take a look at the photos in the second post.
arrow I would like for you to pretend that these are every day people that you have seen in the mall, at your school, workplace or on the streets.
arrow Be as honest as possible and use your feelings to answer the questions.
arrow Copy and paste the code for the Survey in the third post and answer the questions. Do not post anything else in this thread.
arrow If you wish to speak to me about the project you may either post in the "Delinquency through the eye's of another" thread or PM me.

You may do whatever you wish to make your answers visable.

My apologies if this Survey offends anyone. Please remember that this is no different than what a sociologist would do in order to find out if there thesis is correct or incorrect. (Except I am sure they would do something more intelligent and well thought out lol) My sincere apologies if it does so.

Question #Four is an open question so that I can use possible quotes from the surveys. No names will be used. Only survey numbers.

Thank you for your participation.

I think I gave people high values for being threatening, but that's because I'm antisocial and easily intimidated by others, so I basically think everyone is threatening. sad

He looks like he wants to LOOK LIKE a rule breaker, but I'm not really convinced. I think he's breaking some fashion rules with that hair, though.

4. Do you believe this person appears to be a rule breaker?
She looks like the type to get in a lot of trouble, but never let anyone know about it. If she were to break the rules she'd do her best not to let anyone in authority find out. (I have to comment - the fact that her belt says "********" is what makes me rate her appearance as so "inappropriate" - maybe other people didn't notice this?)

Yes. She looks like someone who has a problem with authority and she looks like she wants everyone to know it.

4. Do you believe this person appears to be a rule breaker?
The thing I have to say about this person, is she's the only one that's SMILING. That really affects my perception of her and I have to say she seems like a much nicer person than the others. She doesn't look like a deliberate rule breaker to me, but she might break a rule if it was something she really believed in.

I thank you all for your participation. I am going to delete the photos now. I can't believe she wore that freaking belt. Gah. I wonder if anyone I surveyed IRL noticed that? There aren't any comments about it. But still!
