The hetero homo (as in heter-o-dox, homo-sapiens)
myself

And then I understood:
Young people do not even have the word "non-conformist" in their lexicon.   They have not thought deeply about enough about to care.  "Cool" is conformity.

Non-conformists were born in the 1950's and had their heydey in the 1960's and gradually died out in the 1970's.
Nowadays there are very few non-conformists.  Everyone wants to have 20,000 friends on Facebook.

Even the French, with their sophisticated sense of individuality, have gone America, and now they admire and ape Americans, thinking that if Lady Gaga is good enough for Americans, or if Michael Jackson had, with "Thriller," the best-selling album of all time, then, ergo, they must be artistic geniuses and that the French must pay obeisance to them as well.

If you think something so, that is fine [for you].

And I want to know what you think [and why you think so].

But I do not and will not [have to] always agree with you.
