You "conform to society" in nearly EVERYTHING you do. You live in a society, and the vast majority of your behavior MUST conform to its norms. If you don't, you don't have much chance of survival. To be human is to be a part of society. It's really as simple as that. |
I'm not a non-conformist, so I'm not too sure why you are telling me this.
Have you ever spoken to a non-conformist? They do not understand common sence, they don't care if their reasons are illogical, they just do it anyway. I'm not talking about emo people, emo people are just teenagers with a heavy case of angst and decide to label themselves as something.
