Is partying just for rich kids? | Willy Pedersen

  This is a wrist(腕) van, and there are lots of wrist(腕) vans in Norway each May, and it comes this celebration(庆典), which is actually unique(唯一的) for Norway. Often they have a cap(帽子). What's this all about? Well, it is a kind of time-out experience. During the Russian time, you can break norms(标准). That's a key element(元素) in this experience.
  You can break norms, you can break rules as a sociologist(社会学家). I will try to use a kind of toolbox we use in sociology(社会学), some concepts(概念) to let us understand this phenomenon(现象) better. And very often we would start with gender(性别) and social class, which are two basic(基本的) variables(变量的), regulating(管制) very much our lives. Some of you have probably taken part in something that has some similarities(类似), namely(即) the Norwegian(挪威人) Utriktningsflage, a stag(牡鹿) party. And we will now come to the gender dimension(方面;[数] 维) here. This is not an actual(实际的) stag(牡鹿) party.
  It is a stage made by some photographers( 摄影师). But it was regarded(把…看作) as a kind of cliché and way of having fun for males. As you see, they are going to a strip(条带) club, and we had interviewed quite a few men who went to a strip club to celebrate these few last days before marriage(结婚) comes a new rule supply(供给). And you see these guys that are very much fun, the female stripper is lying(躺) on her back, and they have put banknotes on her body. And they feel the kind of right to touch her body and touch her private(私人的) parts and stuff(材料) like that. And probably this is meant to be fun.
  But I suppose that quite a few of you don't think it's that fun. Perhaps more women than men think it's not that fun. So there is a gender dimension here. If you discussed this with these guys, they would say, well, of course we didn't mean it, it's ironic(说反话的) and stuff(材料) like that. It's even irony(反话) survives(幸免于) in a kind of system of meanings. So this was a made of photo.
  But actually I got a photo from a real female stag party taken some weeks ago in Oslo by someone I know. And look at the difference, look primarily(首先) at the gender(性别) dimension(方面;[数] 维) here. This is taken in Trongneparken. There are some girls, young women. The bride( 新娘) is in the center and she has the bride( 新娘) veil(面纱) on her head and they have very much fun. But you see there is something going on here.
  They don't break the same norms as these males did. Of course people who are passing by(通过), they understand that something strange and funny is going on and they are very much united actually in this ritual(仪式的). I know one of them and she thought it was very, very fun. So pay attention to this gender dimension here because you also find that very much in the Ryssö celebration. This is the first basic variable US sociologists are looking at. So what happens in this celebration?
  Well, if you go into the regional( 地区的) sites for the Ryssö celebration(庆典) in different parts of Norway, you will find that there are a very clear set(设置) of rules that you may break. It may be up to 100. And these rules comes then with the right to put an object in your Ryssö cap. So here you have such a Ryssö cap, lots of objects in this Ryssö cap. And if you know the code here, you will understand that all these items in the cap, they is a documentation(文件) of that you have broken a quite specific norm(标准). So if you have a kid who is Ryssö, you could in the nighttime(夜间) go and take a look and you will understand and check up with the system of rules, the local system rules and check up what your kid have done during the last few days.
  So let me take a few examples, the golden(金色的) pine cone(圆锥体).
