Abstract

This study examines the phenomenon of the American outclass son-in-law through the lens of an exhibition of puppets and batted sayings in Washington. Using a qualitative approach, the researchers conducted interviews with attendees of the exhibition to explore their perceptions of the son-in-law figure, and how this figure is shaped by societal expectations and unconscious biases. The findings suggest that the son-in-law figure is often viewed as a symbol of social mobility, but also faces intense scrutiny and pressure to conform to traditional gender roles and expectations. Additionally, the exhibition itself serves as a reflection of the complex relationships between family, culture, and identity in American society. Overall, this study sheds light on the ways in which unconscious investments in cultural norms can shape our perceptions and expectations of others, and highlights the need for continued critical examination and reflection on these issues.
