The folkway I abused was a wearing other gender’s clothing. In society, different clothing delineates different gender.

The circumstance I established my deliberate violation of a norm was at a birthday party. Most men wore ether trousers and t-shirts/shirts, but I chose to wear the dress for ladies. I decided to conduct my experiment when the party had started, and most people were seated. Immediately upon entering the party venue, I encountered raised eyebrows as I went and took my sitting position. I could hear sounds of giggles and snickers arising from the revellers. Ignoring them, I went straight to serve the drinks. When I finished serving and was headed back to my seat, one of the party members greeted me with a repressed smile. The Master of the ceremony also applauded on the microphone, and all the people turned to look at me with smiles.
