It is natural to follow trends and social norms. I am from the Pacific NW, and here things tend to be fairly relaxed, so when I have visited places like Washington DC I was surprised to see every man in a suit and tie... almost without fail. In Oregon our governor wears blue jeans to work.
So when I am in DC I wear a suit and tie, as it is what is expected. This is following the social norm. In Oregon I never use an umbrella... it is the first sign of a tourist... but in Japan I do. It has nothing to do with familial relationships or child abuse, it is simply about fitting in.

so you are like a flag. the wind changes and off you go. thats why you ll never understand me. I dont follow trends only because others do. I follow what I believe is right for me, the hell with others. You fit in Japan well man, very well haha. What is odd for me is life of a sheep that enjoys the herd life.
