Conformity

          I believe that conforming to social norms is just as common now as it was generations ago.  As social creatures we need to feel accepted by others around us. Feeling accepted brings a sense of happiness to humans. It also relates to that fact that as social creates we want to group ourselves with people who are similar to ourselves. The idea of conforming is mental game humans play with themselves. In reality nobody decides what is acceptable and what is not.  In conclusion, I believe that everything we conform to is a personal choice and something that is not involuntary.
