Why don't social revolutions occur?
There are revolutions against governments, against religions, and against taxes. But there aren't revolutions against social rules.
The answer seems to be that social rules are flexible or forgettable so they aren't rigid enough or permanent enough to require a revolution. Individuals can avoid social rules. Change to social patterns occurs a person at a time and does not require a massive synchronized change for eveyone.
