Butch To illustrate how goofy this can get...... using dress, language, mannerisms, life style, and drug use as a predictor, how would you categorize Rush Limbaugh? Thirty-five years ago most "Hippies" called themselves "freaks" because of the way people who were quick to "categorize" looked at them.... If I understand you correctly, then we agree. Just because a person had long hair and wore ragged jeans did not mean they were a bad person. Unfortunately though, some chose to see it that way. Even today kids rebel against society. It can be in the way they dress, the music they listen to or the way they wear their hair. In the end the vast majority grow out of it, become part of the society they protest against and go to lead constructive lives. Such is the case with the beatniks, the greasers, the hippies and the head bangers of today. |
