Sorry to get you in such a tizzy. However, I would like to take you up on your offer. If you're ever in Chicago, look me up. You'll be swallowing those fangs and the blood and tears will be for real, cutie. Nothing worse than hearing kids with bad attitudes making anonymous threats from behind their computers. Esp when they're wearing make-up.

So you would have him just give in? Just give up his individuality so he doesn't have to put up with the bullshit? Why? Because that's the way things are? It's bullshit. Society should not dictate who we are. Unfortunately, that is the way it is. Does that mean we should like it or give in to it? Not at all. If anything, it should make us fight harder to retain that individuality.
Attitudes such as the one you have were the cause for religious inquisitions where people who were labeled as "different" were executed for being that way. It is the cause of racism, and the cause of undue hatred based solely on the way someone looks. It disgusts me. Especially when people use the excuse "Well, everyone else thinks/acts/talks/looks this way, why shouldn't I?" Just because everyone else you know is bigoted and can't tolerate the differences in other people doesn't mean that you should be the same way.
I know it's on the extreme end, but not liking different ideas and people is what brought Hitler to power. Just think about that. THEN, come back and tell me "fit in because you should, and don't bitch if you don't". That is a very juvenile, lazy attitude that can lead to very bad things.
