Why do we have to co-ordinate?
I am interested as part of mental health themes, boundaries in society.
Image is important more now than ever and we judge each other on how we look. 'First impressions count' I often wonder why we are so hard on each other.
I have recently watched a news article on Beatniks in the 1960's the attitudes were that they were unexceptable in society because of their clothes and long hair.
See the video to the right of this page of Wizz Jones in 1960
Today it seems we have a similar attitude for looking exceptable, in the celebrity world it has gone to the extreme, where you cannot have a hair out of place.
Why are we so strict about our appearance?Why can't we wear what we want wherever we want?If a person was to wear a fancy dress costume to work and it wasn't a special day he/she would be deemed as 'mad'We only have one life, why are we so judgemental, embarrassed and fearful about how we or others look?
