Greasers Vs Socs

First of all, some Greasers have problems because of the involvement of gangs and the unbiased law towards them. In the article “The Allure of Gangs”, the text states “kids who join gangs feel alienated by their parents...want to feel like they are part of some kind of family”(“The Allure of Gangs” on page 40). This is important because the deprivation of parenting caused the joining of gangs. This shows that Greasers are more emotional and just want to be cared. In addition, the author writes “That's why people don't ever think to blame the Socs and are always ready to jump on us. We look hoody and they look decent. It could be just the other

Greasers are “read in between the lines”, so they are conceived as inadequate. Since the socs live a nice lifestyle, they have an advantage of an automatic good reputation. In chapter 1 Ponyboy remarks,”Greasers can’t walk alone too much or they’ll get jumped...We get jumped by the

The Socs and Greasers are complete opposites but they both have some of the same problems.In the book “The Oudsiders “by S.E Hinton,the main person join a gang but the gang has a enemy gang,the Socs.The socs are different to the Greasers but they both have some of the same problems.Some of the same problems the face is family issues,pressure from friends,and alcohol.

The socs were bullies. If they saw a greaser alone they would gang up on

It seems like we’re always searching for something to satisfy us, and never finding it.” This quote is from chapter 3 and it is taken from the part of the story where Two-Bit, Johnny, and Ponyboy are walking Cherry and Marcia home from the drive-in and get confronted by Bob and Randy, their boyfriends. Cherry mentions that they were drunk and that is why she and Marcia left them. They insist that they weren’t, but Cherry’s story says otherwise. A fight almost occurs but Cherry stops it because of her hatred of the clashes between the Socs and Greasers. Afterwards, Johnny and Ponyboy go to the lot and accidentally fall asleep. When Johnny wakes Ponyboy up, Pony freaks out about Darry will do. Ponyboy gets home and finds Darry and Soda waiting for him. They all start yelling and Darry accidentally hits Ponyboy, causing Pony to run out of the house and ask Johnny to run away with him.

In a place where rich and poor, good and bad are fighting with each other.The Greasers had a rougher life than the Socs.The Greasers had a rough life because they were poor and they always get in trouble by the Socs.Greasers are people that can’t afford almost anything and People blame them for doing bad stuff always. The Socs are west side rich kids who basically can own almost everything.People think that Greasers are bad juvenile kids who always do bad things, but in reality they are just poor people that had to do bad stuff because they have to.

Greasers are the main stereotype in the book but also there is a small part played by the Socs. Although the book is about the life and times of a Greaser there is also a ‘Socs Story’ in there, as throughout the book you learn more and more about the Socs and how they live. But this all changes. When Bob dies Cherry and Randy, the main Socs characters, begin to see that there is no difference between Socs and Greasers. Randy, when he talks to Ponyboy in private doesn’t call

In the book The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton, the Socs are the ones to blame for all of the problems. After all they are the cause of the rumble. The Socs are no good drunk 24/7 idiots who need to turn their ego down, and intelligence up. They screw up MANY times in the book. Yah yah, greasers are not perfect, but at least they have some common sense. And I’ll tell you why the greasers are innocent and the Socs are not.

One of the main vs man conflict in the Outsiders is the rival between the greasers and the socs. The greasers are the east side boys who " steal things and drive old souped-up cars and hold up gas stations". The greasers, due to their family background and physical appearance, are being stereotyped as individuals who are poor and are provided with fewer opportunities than others. On the other hand, the socs, are " the west-side rich kids" who come from affluent backgrounds and" likes to jump greasers and throw beer blasts for kicks". In the eyes of the public, the Socs are the social elites whereas the greasers are considered the less privileged, second-class citizens.

In The Outsiders, both the Socs and the Greasers spent most of their time in gang fights and disobeying the law. The Socs were wealthier and had a higher social status. “We get jumped by the Socs. I'm not sure how you spell it, but it's the abbreviation for the Socials, the jet set, the West-side rich kids. It's like the term "greaser," which is used to class all us boys on the East Side.We're poorer than the Socs and the middle class. I reckon we're wilder, too” (Hinton 4). The Greasers were poor and usually came from

Most people in this novel think that Greasers are a disgrace, but no one notices how badly the Socs treat Greasers. The socs bully greasers and that could be causing more anger to build in the greasers that cause them to act out. Socs verbally and physically abuse them, it’s one thing to steal but it’s another when you hurt someone mentally or physically on purpose. I’ve seen with my own eyes that kids who have been hurt by others or their parents cause them to act out and do things they normally wouldn’t do because of their built up anger. No one knows what happens at home for a

I am a greaser because I have always hated the rich schools and the way they do things. I hated them because i didn't get treated like an equal because i was poor back then and i always got bullied and when i would defend myself, because the bully hit me or something i would always be the one in trouble. Also when my mom and dad came to my school for a parent teacher conference my dad would always get really mad because they wouldn't treat are options fair and the rich kids were always right. I could do nothing about that so i told my mom i wanted to move so we moved to okay,oklahoma i liked that place much better it was a small town that was probably not on the map. It was a poor town with a gas station,

Have you ever noticed in “The Outsiders” the differences and the similarities between the Greasers and the Socials? Well I will be explaining and showing why the Socials and Greasers are different and why they are the same. I will also be giving evidence supporting Ponyboys thought that Greasers and Socials are the same.

The difference between the Greasers and Socs in the society is the Greasers treated unequally and criticized for being poor. The Socs are bullying, criticizing, and intimidating the Greasers based on the economic level. Greasers have unequal lifestyles, attitudes, and financial situations, but still live in the same world, beneath the same sun as the Socs (Hinton 18), but repeat the same actions toward the Socs in a way of fighting back and sticking together.

There were conflicts between the Socs that conflicted with the greasers. They were two opposite groups that didn't get along. The Socs, "the jet-set...West-side rich kids, wear madras shirts, smell of English leather, and drive new sports cars..." (6). Socs were rich, while greasers were low class. "Soc" is an abbreviation of the Socials, which are the West-side rich kids. Socs had a better reputation than the greasers.
