Gender stratification is gender division in any way, shape, or form. A great example of this is when Medusa finally finds out that even though she was queen, she was completely kept in the dark about some of Black Bolts plans.

This is a great example of differential association theory because it shows how people do something because their friends are doing it. Social norms are activities or actions that are normal in everyday life. An example of social norms being broken in Marvels Inhumans is when Black Bolt gets teleported to earth and violated many social norms. He would resist arrest and wear a suit out of a boutique. These are both violations of social norms because there are laws against these acts. Therefore, since everyone abides by these laws, they are qualified to be social norms. A concept that I found interesting throughout the series is family. Family is the relationships in which people live together with commitment, form an economic unit and care for any young, and consider their identity to be significantly attached to the group.
