Some of those parts you create for yourself. Other parts of your identity have been created by society. “SOCIETY” is another way of saying community. These identities have been created, named, framed, and defined by society for a very long time. We call them “SOCIAL IDENTITIES.” Your social identity is the you that relates to other people in society (for example, your neighborhood, city, or country). Much of our culture comes from our social identities and the groups we belong to.
