    Well I used to think I was a hippy. Though with hindsight was just a pretentiuous deluded idiot. Can't honestly remember what my justification for this assumed hipness was, but I sure as hell didn't have the mindset.
    I was cynical, angry and lots of other non hippy stuff. Still am at times but at least have the decency to admit and embrace it.

    The irony now is the closer I seemingly grow to the mindset, the less I actually care about conforming to an outdated stereotype. Why bother and what are you trying to prove?

    So, short answer ....
    probably not, but I no longer give a rats ass eithier way.

    I know for damn sure that I'm not a hippie. That's a thing of the past and a steriotype. I'm myself. Besides, I beleive in peace, love, and awesome music, but I really don't want peace with the assholes at the top of the pyramid.

    Not on their terms at least. I really can't even call them humans. What they do, none of us(humans) would.

    Hippie is a stereotype label on us. They think all hippies smoke pot and try to save trees. When really there are many layers to all of us, and we believe and lots of things and feel lots of different emotions not always "dazed and confused."
    So all those people out there can call me a hippie, because I really don't care because they really don't know who I am as a person. =)

    maybe i am, everyone calls me hippie...maybe cos of my hygiene habits...mmmm
    or cos i love the environment, animals, trees everything and i respect all ways of life
    or cos i just dont give a fuck about being corrupted by mainstream culture and rather have my own mind...i dont say i'm a hippie but i can relate to most of the hippie values. yeah man.

    I would call myself a hippie, because, I act like a hippie, but I'm not that big into labels.
    But for the sake of this thread, yeah, I'm a label.

    i would think its established thats its a 'label' and/or 'stereotype'.

    but still, hippiedom IS something ... a very real something ... and yes you CAN be a hippie. please dont say that shit about the 60s or 70s.

    you either ARE hip or you are NOT hip.

    of course you are all you, hippiedom allows you to be ... you

    now, i dont mean this to be starting a thread about what is hippiedom, so lets not go into that, i just felt the need to say this

    obviously some others dont agree with me, but i see know problem in answering the question of whether or not im a hippie ... I dont go around telling people thats who I am ... in fact, i dont know if i've ever said the words 'im a hippie' or anything close but im not ashamed when asked to answer and say I KNOW I AM

    What's wrong with being a hippie? Whatever. I also am not a big fan of the labels, but if I'm going to be labeled as something (face it, alot of society is into labeling, Maybe not us hippies...oops did I say it?) then there are far worse things to be labeled as. Anyway, in our purest essence these words, labels, whatever, mean nothing. We just exist.
