Explanation:

The term individual comes from Latin word "individuus" meaning indivisible or inseparable. In English, today, it means one, single, separate object or a person.

So, in analogy to this, deindividuation is a term meaning losing oneself's identity and individual characteristics to a group.

The participants in this Stanford Prison Experiment lost all of their individual traits; they gained characteristics of the group they belonged to (prisoners or guards) and acted in the way it was expected of them, not the way they would normally do.

femininity is conveyed through bernice's personality. she doesn't act how the other girls act and everyone thinks she is weird. she learns how to act in a way that was considered femininely appropriate at the time. she becomes so popular but her attempts to be liked end up backfiring when she is pressured into bobbing her hair. the author wrote that bernice cut off her cousin's hair in revenge for tricking her to cut her hair. this was the authors way of trying to change the way feminine is defined and the way women are expected to act.
