I agree completely, these non-conformists can get outta control with their obsessions of being different. But sometimes people have trouble expressing their unique thoughts, and therefore, express it on their bodies. Sometimes people are in an enviornment where their thoughts won't be met with agreement or acceptance; so they shut up and dye their hair. It's sort of like a coping mechanism for some people. And also, there's just those who like the way it looks. Everyone is conforming to something, whether it be conformism or non-conformism.

there's my two cents.

You're assuming that I think that everyone who dyes their hair or do something "out of the ordinary" is trying to be a non conformist.

I never said you don't understand something. I said you assume that I think that everyone who dyes their hair or do something "out of the ordinary" is trying to be a non conformist. I was just correcting you, and there's no need for sarcasm.

Oh, ok. Sorry, cyberspace can be decieving... deceiving? Deceiving. Anyway, besides purposley dressing differently than everyone else, one can act differently, start hanging out with different people, make a fake CD of their "band" (I heard someone did that in the 7th grade), but it's really a fine balance. I mean people want to assert their unique identity while at the same time fit in. Bad examples, I mean it's mainly a physical looks thing. What do you think?

Gotcha. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I can come off as sarcastic/hostile by accident quite often. I heard about that fake cd deal too. People can kinda suck. I like books.
