Are you a conformist or an Individual? Many Americans today would argue that they are truly themselves, but when you look around people tend to look quite similar to the people around them. People flock to groups full of people just like them and claim to be original and unique. I agree with the author of “Individuality vs. Conformity: The Healthy Middle?” who states that although teens all want to fit in, they want to be different. A majority of people who brag about being a nonconformist look almost identical to all the other nonconformist. They are simply conforming to an alternative group where they are accepted. If you look around a high school you will notice a lot of teenagers try to express themselves and showcase their uniqueness.
