In "The Outsiders" by S.E. Hinton, "greasers" are a tight-knit group of working-class teenagers from the East Side of town who are often unfairly judged for their appearance and socioeconomic status. On the other hand, "hoods" is a slang term used to refer to criminals or troublemakers in the book, and is not specifically associated with the greasers.
no he is a hood
The most like stereotypical hood in The Outsiders is Dally.
"Hood" was short for "hoodlum", i.e. a criminal.
when one was her greaser friends was beaten when she was fifteen. I had a copy with a Questions & Answers in the back of it, and Hinton said she had hung out with a group of greasers a lot. They were her close friends, and one day while they were walking, one got jumped. Angry, she went home and did the first chapter of the book (from the experience she had just had), and she was probably inspired to finish it some more, because of the lack of 'realistic' teen books at the time.
juvenile delinquent
An example of verbal irony from the book "The Outsiders" occurs when Ponyboy says, "I'm a greaser. I'm a JD and a hood. I blacken the name of our fair city." This is ironic because Ponyboy is actually a kind and thoughtful person who doesn't fit the stereotype of a troublemaker.
