You vs. The Society

What to prefer to be; yourself or what society wants you to be? Or would you stick it to the man, when you have nothing.

Are you the type of person that will allow society to rule over you; or will you declare to society who you really are?

As a result; most people allow society to reveal to them, that they have no say to their individuality, in which that can cause intense problems in a person self-confidence. Instead of individuals taking charge of their own lives they allow society to pry on their fear that they cannot survive on their own. Providing this case; individuals will abide by these rules for a certain period of time, before there independence kicks in, and attack the status quo of what society expects from them.

What if you have nothing to offer to yourself or to the society, and the only way you can get whatever you want is by asking society to provide you with whatever you want. Will you still allow “The man” to stick to you; or, plea that “The man” should give you what you are asking for? 

Most people will plea to get whatever they want; but, with the cost of loosing their individuality in the process. While the rest that says “Screw “The man”", they will not give up their individuality for the cost of getting what they want. As a result; those people may not get what they want; but they will be ecstatic that they are able to keep their individuality intact despite the denunciation of the appeal that they are looking for.

    Yes, but people who do not care to fit in run the risk of not being able to gain stability or security. On the other hand they might be able to work from the inside by gaining leadership roles and changing the way leadership will interact with the citizen of (what should be) a free nation.
