discourse

Anyone and everyone can experience the conflict between two discourses. The people who experience the conflict between two discourses the most are probably people in the their adolescents trying to do their own thing separate from their peers and just younger people in general because they are still trying to figure out how to fit in with everything around them and be successful in life. People who experience the least conflict between two discourses are probably the people who created the discourse or are high up on the social ladder. Mayors, presidents, governors, or the popular kids at school. I believe that people can live their lives without worrying about discourses if they are willing to live a certain way, but most people want to fit in with something or other and want to be accepted and respected by their peers so discourses affect those people a lot. So its pretty much a person's choice how they want to be affected by discourse.
