I agree and do not like the idea that we have masks and satisfy different roles for deifferent situations. I would like to think that people know me for who I really am and not know me for whatever performance I put on. Goffman does a great job of defending his reasons for thinking we all have roles and different masks but it still leaves me unsettled to think that different people know me as a different person.
