Why are socs and greasers rivals in the book outsiders?
The Greasers fight in the book The Outsiders because the Soc's drive around in their fancy cars looking for trouble. They go around and jump kids like Johnny and almost Ponyboy. The Greasers are considered dirty and a menace to society, while the Soc's are consider rich kids who never start trouble. The Greasers fight because they feel like they must protect and defend themselves. The two gangs also fight because each gang has their own problems and they take it out on each other. In the story, the fighting escalates to rumble. Eventually, Ponyboy(Greaser) and Randy(Social) realizes that the fighting is useless. They realize that it isn't going to solve their own problems. As Cherry Valence had previously said, they all watch the same sunset.
Why was it so important when the greasers met the two socs girls at the movies in the outsiders?
Greaser Hair: The greasers cannot afford rings, cars, or other materialistic symbols of power that the Socs have. Therefore, their hair is their symbol of identity. By wearing their hair long, greasers differentiate themselves from other social groups. It is not only distinctive, but, is truly a vital part of the greaser persona. When the Socs jump Ponyboy at the beginning of the book, they ask him if he wants a haircut and threaten to cut off his hair robbing him of his identity. Later in the story, Ponyboy and Johnny cut off their hair and dye it. This act symbolizes them stepping outside of their "comfort zone" and leaving behind the security of conformity within their group to grow as individuals.
