    I was wondering that out of the 163,181 members and I do understand most are not around anymore. But the question is who is actually a so called hippie.

    Yes And No...

    YES:- I Have Dreadlocks And Have Not Worn Shoes For

    Years But Wear Five Thin Toerings..:).

    NO:- I Shower Daily, Wear Freshly Washed Clothes

    Usually Camo Print Long Pants And A Tee, And Drive A

    Nice German Car...:)

    I Have Been Asked "Are You A Hippie" And I Say No,

    I'm Just Doing My Own Thing, I Don't Have A Nagging

    Wife And Teenaged Kids Telling Me What Is "In" And What Is "Out".

    I'm Sure Lots Of People Wonder What Makes Me "Tick".

    There Are Some Days I Wonder Myself...[​IMG]

    Sure, I'm a hippie, long haired, drug addled, non conforming escapee from the 60's adorned with scars, wrinkles, tattoos, blue jeans & tee shirt all held together with an attitude of love,weirdness and passion for Mama Earth. Either I'm a hippie or an extra for some strange movie called life that's still being shot.

    I was an aspiring Hippie but never really achieved total Hippyness. I was at the tailend of it. I was only 13 during the Summer of Love, kinda hard to run off and join a commune at that age. I distinctly remember my buddy and I trying to figure out how to get to Woodstock. Unfortunately Hippy doesn't pay the bills.

    I was always the outcast, believed in what most people did not and most people called me hippie, just wondered why others were considered hippie.

    I'm a non-conformist pretty much; free spirit; earthy. I always felt like I was born 10 years too late to be an original Hippie, however I had 3 older brothers and 2 of them were true Hippies. When I was in high school, my crowd was labeled "Freaks".

    People label me a hippie on occassion, but I don't know if this makes me a hippie. I have long hair. I wear whatever I want, but I don't dress like a hippie. I'm earthy as all hell. I like farms and forests and nature. I'm free-spirited.

    I dunno if any of that makes me a hippie.

    I actually identify myself as a flapper.

    no one has ever called me a hippie

    so I guess im not one

    I am a free person though who does what I want..when I want...and how I want.....I prefer being my own boss in employment...and in life

    but if the right girl comes along I will happily be her bitch slave :)
