I may be what you classify as a rebel. Ever since I was little, I was taught to follow the social norms. I dealt with this for how many years, until one day I decided I didn't want to continue conforming to society's social norms. That's were I became a rebel. I feel free, less pressure to fit in and\follow the crowd. Social norms were a pain in the butt. I became a rebel because I wanted to be different. And I succeeded in becoming a rebel. I live by my rules and not society's .


So do you conform to social norms or are you a rebel like me?

What exactly do you do to rebel or to buck the norms of society? I mean give us some examples.

Society tells me to not eat raw eggs, but here I am drinking homemade eggnog made with raw eggs. One of my many many ways I give "the man" the middle finger.

Bwhahaha. That is the way to show them. I don't squeeze my toothpaste from the bottom up. Nope, I squeeze it right in the middle, and to hell with anyone who doesn't like it.

Holding unpopular views, dressing a bit out of sync with the rest of society, making my own rules

No, that's not a societal norm - it's medical advice. Not picking your nose in public is a societal norm.

I live alone. I think most of society does not think this is normal.

Eww. Well, picking your nose in public could be a way to remain alone and aloof because no one would want to hang with you.
