Good thesis on popularity/peer pressure?

Question

i'm doing a sociology project on peer pressure & popularity and how they're interelated and i need a good thesis . thanks!

Answer 1

Popularity and peer pressure are directly correspondant in the idea that in order to be "popular" to have to do "popular things" - the things other popular people are doing; smoking, drinking; things you might not do otherwise. Many break from peer pressure in hopes that doing whatever it is, will make them cooler in the eyes of the popular.

Answer 2

Being popular is directly related to how one responds to peer pressure.  A person who gives into peer pressure is more likely to be labeled by their peers as popular as opposed to someone who does not give into peer pressure.
