Abstract
The article discusses the pervasiveness in society for the need to feel part of the audience. Examples are given of two painted messages, or graffiti, that has an audience in which each act represents its own meaning and importance to the perpetrator. Topics include the author's conclusions that graffiti is a gender-specific activity practice by males and the less restrictive social taboos regarding how males should behave in public.
