Conformity - Blog Posts
Each man had only one genuine vocation - to find the way to himself….His task was to discover his own destiny - not an arbitrary one - and to live it out wholly and resolutely within himself. Everything else was only a would-be existence, an attempt at evasion, a flight back to the ideals of the masses, conformity and fear of one’s own inwardness.
Hermann Hesse
Me: what does "dress like a girl" even mean?
Also Me: Hey [ma shopping pal], I think the women's clothes are on that side of the store.
These days, beauty is packaged and sold.
That box there is this weirdly specific hair
colour whose name
sounds like a desperate student’s last ditch
efforts to meet the word count
That shampoo is a scent that sounds like an
overenthusiastic writer’s sensory description
That t-shirt is designed to make you look slim
Mirrors are our enemies
Make-up our allies
and we gobble it up,
Burying our identities in
Consumer debt and social expectations.
