Besides, there's always something that's looked down on. It used to be smoking, and to a large degree still is with our health obsessed society, but it's slowly moving on to being fat.

Society expects you to be a model citizen, whatever that may be at the time.

Conform.
Yeah and I think it is possible for a society to focus too much on that sort of thing. Also what 'health' obsessed society maybe shallow outside appearance, financial status obsessed society but if this society was health obsessed I'd think it would be a wee bit healthier.

Well society can keep it's expectations, but that doesn't mean anyone is obligated to live up to them...why should I or anyone else conform to something they disagree with even if they do have the option?
Thanks for this!
