as social actors, we are
constantly altering our
behaviour inorder to manipulate
how others see us.
- This is called impression management.
To illustrate, our preferred self are
perceived to others whilst our less
favourable self can be concealed. Roles
are losely scripted. As social actors, one
may use language, tone, facial
expressions etc to essentially 'fake it'.

- Weaknesses
- Vague at explainign human behaviour, too
subjective, ignores power (marxism), too micro
therefore lacks representativeness, not
generalisable, does not explian the origin of
meanings/labels, feminists argue it neglects the
experience of women, it ignores wider structural
causes of social issues.
