Cards

Our society's daily norms could be comical to someone from Japan. Just by sitting in a chair with out legs crossed would be recognized as a rude gesture to someone from a different culture. The card game we played this week helped us experience the diversity that is found all over the world. Each table was given a different set of rules for the card game and once the different rules were put into one game, the players could no longer understand what was going on. Just as if you took someone from America, Japan, Libya, and put them all together, their "rules" would also be different and it would make it difficult to understand eachother their their separate ways of life. Sociologically we are all brainwashed into thinking our ways are the right ways but outside of the fishbowl there's a whole world with different norms.
