Deviant behavior is not defined by a fixed set of rules but varies according to time, context, and whose interests are affected. It can change over time as social norms and values change. The context of the behavior and the setting in which it takes place are important in determining whether a behavior is considered deviant or not. Finally, the interests of the people or group affected by the behavior also matter in defining deviancy.
