Every social group develops their own codes to identify themselves with that group.This is part of the study of semiotics. Jws have many code .Then there are semiotics for apostates. I'll start the lists. I'd appreciate help finishing these lists.
Yes there are signals other than words that you are a JW or and Apostate such as
JW
shaving beard(a sure sign he's getting the program) buying a 4 door car
Apostates
Tattoos body piercings christmas tree
you all finish the lists. I love semiotics.
Crazy is doing the same thing over and over again when it doesn't work.
J's: A disapproving look, raised eyebrows, a slight shake of the head and a deep sigh when you notice something that is obviously not "theocratic", i.e., spike heels, short skirt.
Apostate: A look of sheer glee, a slight drool, a nodding of the head and loud wolf whistles when you notice something that is obviously not "theocratic" but you don't care anymore, i.e., spike heel, short skirt.
