Question: Do you think there are people that exist that do things just to test societal norms? If so , why do you think they do this?
Society today puts endless amounts of pressure of people to "fit in" and has caused people to go about their days practically on auto-pilot, following the same routines and looking to the media for guidance. But there are some people who like to test out new things, and go against the norms. Some might do it just to get reactions from others, yet some might do it just to rebel and go against society.
In my opinion, breaking the norms keeps life interesting. It makes people question how much they are really getting out of life and how they can live to their full potential.
My question is- Do you think social norms keep us from being spontaneous and cause us to care too much about what others think?
