Example #10 - THE CONFORMIST APPROACH

This example apparently alludes to an idea deeply rooted in society's collective mind. The idea being that one has to sacrifice one's freedom, dignity and happiness just to be like everyone else; to be accepted in society. Since almost everybody is conformist in any modern society is no wonder that nobody questions this approach. Those living in the fringes of society, artist, monks and such are, perhaps, the only ones that have views on this approach. The rest are conformist by their very own nature.
