last week question 1

Rhetorical criticism is the kind of methodology that I found to be most interesting. This is because I am most fascinated with how people can persuade others to do things or believe certain ideas. I am constantly trying to fight what people tell me to do my entire life. For example, teachers or my parents would tell me who I need to be and anytime they did I would reply with "who says?" I don't just trust someone and what they are telling me because they say I should. Rhetorical criticism questions some of that.
The deception I would enjoy studying most would be my ex-boyfriend being deceitful when he cheated on me. The research question I would frame about it is: How does a boy and a girl interact with one another when they know they are cheating on their partner? I would chose the Ethnography methodology to decipher this situation. This method is when I would get to go undercover and watch them from a distance or pretend I am someone else and interact with them as well. I think this methodology would be kind of fun and I would get to see some harsh truths that are apart of our world that we all have to face at times.
