MsMacComb -> Nonconformists line up here to conform. (5/16/2006 1:59:55 AM)

I freely admit to not conforming so wonder why others so readily feel they need to pressure others to do so.
Motorcycle gangs are outlaws and nonconformists yet they usually have a "code" or rules so they all dress, talk, drive, ride, walk and act the same.
Punk rockers (heavy metal, rap, etc) are all outlaws and nonconformists yet they usually have a "code" or rules so they all dress, talk, walk the same.
The same usually applies, to Goth, gangbangers, lowriders, rednecks, druggies, and most anyone else that isnt a "suit" so to speak.
S/Mers are usually considered outcasts of most of societies norms, are seen as deviant, perverted, often engage in activities or peruse books, mags, sites and vids that are considered "outlawed" in most counties and states and certainly in most countries.
People who often wish to express their "individuality" dress or alter themselves in a certain and unique way to accomplish this. So they say. So why is it that every other "individualist/outlaw/nonconformist" dyes their hair pink, gets tribal tattoos, buy's the same black makeup etc? Whats original about tattooing, dressing, dyeing themselves almost identical to millions of others that then all state they are "expressing their individuality"?
Why do so many people here seem obsessed with trying to make "newbies" conform to their version of "kink/fetish/alternative lifestyle"? Why do so many feel threatened if someone doesnt buy into their "conformist" version of how S/M should be done?
