obviously, everyone's different and since kindergarten (or preschool) we've been taught that everyone's different and special. Well, why in the world do ppl judge other's on their fashion sense? the answer is obvious. We separate ourselves into groups that are totally stupid. I'm forced in the so-called "Goth group" when i'm not even goth.
it's stupid.
and it must stop.
My philosophy on this subject is that we are ALL individuals and who we choose to be friends w/ is totally our choice. Don't let your group define who you are.
Don't let wat other's say define who you are.
Don't let wat other's say you SHOULD be define who you are.
And don't let wat you where define who you are.
YOU are an individual.
YOU are not of a group but one in a group
Not one of a million but one in a million
And that's wat i learned at camp
thank you.

You are right. But, people will always judge others, it is a way of life..always has been.

People have been judged due to social classes, financial classes, fashion classes, music classes.

It is a way of people with no more than half a brain cell to keep track of who is who. I get along with everyone though..unless they are pr*cks, then they can get to France XD.

yeah.... just trying 2 fight the cause lol

[RazorBlade]

yeah but the problem comes when people dont think and they just follow the rest of the people without any reason just because that is trend or just because everybody does, thats when the persons lose ther individuality when they act without thinking

I couldnt have said it better myself. You are correct in every thing you said...if only the world had more people like you in it...

The problem with most people is that they want to belong to a certain "group" because they can't be bothered to search for their own identity... They follow the crowd and live the illusion that they are different when they are really just the same as others.

Then again, others who have found thei true identity repress it and allow society and other people's opinion to define who they are. Thats just a shame...

Individuality died a long time ago and has been replaced with consumerism.

Punk was consumerised, for fuck's sake.
