Kate Fox in her anthropology of the English observed that drunkenness came with a standardised set of outrages to perform, ranging from swearing and scuffling up to mooning.[8] She also noted how "the English take great pleasure in being shocked and outraged, and righteous indignation is one of our favourite national pastimes, but the feelings expressed are nonetheless genuine".[9] Social emotional development ./cache/en-wikipedia-org-2034.html ./txt/en-wikipedia-org-2034.txt
