How to use "Black sheep" in context?
When analyzing a group of individuals, it is important to identify those that are considered "black sheep" in order to understand their behaviors and what makes them unique. Black sheep are often considered to be the individuals that deviate from the norm in some way, and this can be true for a number of reasons. It can be because they are different in their appearance or behavior than the other members of the group, or they may be more outspoken or independent than the others.
While black sheep can sometimes be viewed as outsiders, this does not mean that they can't be successful or that they don't have the same capabilities as the rest of the group.
