We’ve grown up listening to norms set by society. These norms are presented to us as sacred laws. Break them, and you are labeled “outcast’. Well being called an outcast excites me. I would feel proud if I’d be labelled as an ‘outcast’.
The most feared thing is “what would people say?” Well I say screw people and follow your heart. At the end of the day it’s your happiness that matters.
Pedophiles are outcasts, and they surely broke society's rules.
Don't know what you're talking about, but you better don't do illegal stuff, jail is not a good place to be.
Not everything you do in society to be labeled an outcast is illegal, so it's not like OP is promoting that sort of thing. He / She is merely stating that they want to be different in society and follow their dreams/heart. That's a pretty known thing today and many people follow this, even with the social repercussions that are present today.
This is something that I've always followed around friends and family though, as I do allow them a fair share of opinion in my life -- though at the end of the day I make my own decision on what I want to do about stuff in my life and if I end up being an outcast or whatever-- so be it.
Do what you want for you, not for anyone else.
