What Makes You Different Makes You Beautiful...Individuality Should Always Be "In"

It seems like the "rage" of today and top-selling trend is standing for up what you believe and letting your "freak flag fly". This is fine and dandy but I feel "individuality" has always been, and should always be, "in". Everyone keeps jumping on the bandwagon like its some sort of fad like a monogrammed handbag or silly band.

Gay best friends are treated like a designer watch or accessory instead of the individuals they are and who have struggled to become. It's now "cool" to befriend and accept the unusual when we should love each other because of our differences, not based on whether or not its the popular thing to do. We all should seek to understand the underdog whether that person be a friend, acquaintance, or even ourself. Most importantly, seek to rebel, push boundaries, and live beyond the limits that society sets as acceptable. By all means....be revolutionary.
