Non conformity is achieving originality and this forms the backbone of individualism. As a teenager, we try to identify who we are and we try to resist conforming to societies ideals and standards. The idea of non conformity exists in all forms; from music to movies and books.
A song from the musical ‘Hairspray’- You can’t stop the beat embraces this idea. A common belief in transcendentalism is rebelling against anyone who tries to hold you back. The chorus:” And if you try to hold me down I’m gonna spit in your eye and say That you cant stop the beat!”
The rebellious nature of this song amplifies non conformity and individualism.
