Greasers and Socs (short for Socials) are two distinct groups in S.E. Hinton's novel "The Outsiders." Greasers are typically from the lower socioeconomic class, often characterized by their long hair, leather jackets, and a rebellious attitude. In contrast, Socs are wealthy, privileged individuals who often engage in reckless behavior but maintain a more polished appearance. The rivalry between these groups highlights the themes of class struggle and identity in the story.
