To willingly choose to be a comformist in this day and age can be noncomformist in itself. It all depends on context, of course. It's generally not a good idea to be either just for the sake of it, but rather to be able to ponder which is better to be in any given situation, or in even whole sets of similar ones at that.
A lot of things go into whether you're going to be comformist about something or not, though, such as temperament and the degree of societal pressure to which one is subjected to regarding any one topic in particular.
You were specifically addressing someone who has lauded comformity, so you were either talking to me, Aroura, or both. As such, I had to make sure I wasn't misunderstood.

I didn't say you gave that impression. I added my own opinion. Just because a thought is not yours does not mean it's pointed at you.
