Answer 2

The given statement is true because deviance is simply an act that defies society’s established values and norms and arouses negative social reactions.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Deviance is relative because a behavior considered deviant 'depends on the circumstances' in which the behavior occurs rather the behavior itself.

• For example, if a 'young male murder someone', he faces prosecution, arrest and even possible execution but if a 'soldier kills someone' during wartime, he/she is considered a hero.

• Deviance is not the quality of the act committed, it’s a consequences sanctioned to an offender.
