because the body goes through many changes. These changes, combined
with a natural desire to feel accepted, mean it can be tempting for
people to compare themselves with others. They may compare
themselves with the people around them or with actors and celebs
they see on TV, in movies, or in magazines. (kidshealth.org)

North Carolina laws protect against discrimination for race,
religion, or country of origin by classifying them as hate crimes,
which carry stiffer penalties. Assistant district attorney James
Blanton said, Sexual orientation is not one of the protected

that the victim has a different sexual orientation that they're not
satisfied with, it would not bump it up to a felony.(wwaytv3)

Findings from this study show the following that peer pressure and
peer conformity can be reliably and efficiently assessed in young
adolescents, that doing things in order to be popular with others
is strongly related to feeling pressured by others to engage in
certain activities, and that peer pressure is a far stronger
predictor of risk behaviors and potential psychosocial difficulties
than popularity. (Santor)
