The way we present ourselves to others is partly based on our interaction with others and our life experiences. We decide what behaviors are against the law and which aren"t includes sexual behaviors. What is real depends on what is socially acceptable. How we define everyday situations depends on our backgrounds and experiences. How our view on sexual behaviors have changed over time. Not just the law itself is socially constructed but our views on sexual behavior is socially behavior constructed as well and how it has changed over time. Consider what that means and how what we respond. Something is deviant only when we label it deviant the reaction is important. Sees the world as constantly shaped by the people who are in it shaped by our culture, social interaction, time, historical context this means that everything we know is socially constructed. Within statuses we perform a role there are certain expectations this shape and guides our behavior.
