you are the one using the term 'conformist' - my point was simply to point out the lapse in logic with the idea that by expecting a person to behave in a specific way to avoid being labled a conformist, they have became by definition, a conformist as they are conforming to another set of behaviors and expectations.
the whole idea of conformity in the way you are using it is stupid. a tattoo or piercing is a "non-conforming thing" - what about all the other idiots conforming the to idea that a tattoo or piercing is the non-conforming thing to do, so they do it, thus becoming a conformist.
