We can talk about the similarities between the Greasers and the Socials. The first piece of evidence to prove the Greasers and the Socs are similar exists on page 46 in the book. Cherry said to Ponyboy, “Just don’t forget that some of us watch the sunset too” (46). This piece of evidence proves that both Ponyboy and Cherry are from opposite gangs but still watch the same sunset. The second piece of evidence exists , on page 1 in the packet Themes, Motifs & Symbols. The packet states, “Cherry Valance, a Soc, and Ponyboy, a Greaser, discuss their shared love for literature, popular music…” (12). This quote shows to us that still after Ponyboy and Cherry being in opposite gangs, they still have similar interests in literature, popular music, and more. The third and final piece of evidence is on page 35 of the book. The book tells us, “Things are rough all over” (35). The last piece of evidence clearly tells us that both the Greasers and the Socials have it rough all over, meaning they both have problems, no matter what.
Now coming to an end to the differences and similarities throughout the book The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton, we the readers come to understand that S.E. Hinton has proved that characters in the book, Ponyboy and Cherry, infact prove to know they are similar. Cherry and Ponyboy talk like ordinary people and put their differences aside, Cherry even helps the Greasers to gather information before
