Everything about Folkways Sociology totally explained
Folkways are the patterns of conventional
behavior in a
society,
norms that apply to everyday matters. They are the conventions and habits learned from childhood.
They are one of three types of norms, the others being
mores and Taboos, mores are much more strictly enforced than folkways. Generally conformity to folkways is ensured by gentle social pressure and imitation. Breaking or questioning a folkway doesn't cause severe punishment, but may cause the person to be laughed at, frowned upon, or scolded. In western culture, folkways include (but are not limited to) respecting the privacy of strangers and eating food with the proper utensil.
