    Wait a minute here,......you think it's wrong for people to classify themselves. (which by the way is a topic that has come up many other times on this site,) and you care about making an ass of yourself?

    Calm your little hippie ass down. Yes, classifying yourself is ignorant. (Which by the way, I know it has come up, were you trying to make a point by telling me that?) What part of that is hard for you to understand?
    Now, I'd like you to show me where I said I cared about making an ass of myself. Come on, show me.

    i could classify myself in a couple of sentences probably... a couple of words can represent a lot of things....

    Chuck, I'd rather stop, "fighting," with her, because that's not my style. :) (by the way, once again, you ROCK!)

    SurHipE, thanx, I'm glad somebody does. I thought it was pretty logical.;)

    moonflower, I wasn't trying to start an arguement or make a point, I just thought it was sort of redundant. As for the part you asked about, see my last post where I quoted you. You said dancing in the flowers is making an ass of yourself.

    Once again I odn't want to fight with you. That's not my level.

    i did just comment on something similar to this in another thread.

    there's something very cheesy and insecure about people going about and spouting off their "hippiness" to people who don't care either way.

    anyone so obsessed with their appearance to go out of their way to find a title (be it hippy, goth, etc) only gives away their extreme self-consciousness. nothing's more sickening than kids who proudly inform me they've found their mould. bah. if you want to run through a field, do it by all means. but when you're doing it to prove to others that you ARE someone, the whole thing just reeks of someone wanting attention. if someone else calls you a hippy, fine, but when you start labelling yourself, it sounds desperate.

    and that's all i have to say about that. oh, and moon flower, you're my hero by the way... every comment i come across from you is so intelligent and cultivated, it's nice to hear your remarks.

    I do understand your point, I would never just run in a field so people would look at me and say, "hippie" I do it because I like it, and it makes me feel happy and peaceful. I do not label myself, "Oh, yeah I'm hippie, I'm so happy I found my mold!!! PEACE AND LOVE" I would never do that

    I know how you feel SurfHipE. I have talked to you on many occasions about how people take things the wrong way.


    Anyways,..........What I don't understand is if, "being a hippy," is stereotyped as not caring about how you are seen and living life naturally without a doubt in your mind, then why do some people care if you classify yourself as, "a hippy," or not? I don't understand because I thought, (from people's responses,) that being a hippy is about doing your own thing and "going with the flow," and the vibe you feel fits you, so,...why care if one wants to call themselves that or not. Your idea of a hippy may be different from my idea of a hippy and anyone else's, ("your" being anyone who has taken the time to read this.) All in all, why don't we stop judging one another, because that doesn't make it any better.

    Get along.

    Nightmare has the right idea about catereogizing, (sp?) and SurfHipE has a good idea about not being made a, "mold."
