I can see that somewhere out there people are afraid of being different from others. They do not want to feel alienated. They resort to being like one another, otherwise, they'll be seen as deviants.
As the matter of fact, we tend to eliminate those who are different from others in order to protect ourselves.
Turn into a homogeneous crowd? Running after fashion, even though deep inside we find it strange at first sight we still pull this & that, closing an eye on originality to make ourselves feel 'cool' in the crowd. But why? I find it appalling after all.
Where has this whole being individualistic thing gone to? & I'm not even empathizing on fashion, just the thoughts that run through your minds today. Is the first thing you ask yourself "What will others think?" coz you're afraid people will call you downright nuts if you were to have something irregular in mind? Think about it.
Guess it's society, expressing yourself in your own individulatistc way is no longer extraordinary.
