Preserving Forms

- We have always recognized that our behavior should conform to accepted rules and standards of conduct which protect the lawful person, property, and privileges of others, but we have persistently maintained an ideology which certifies freedom of thought and belief. 40 years from now, without realizing the consequences of this phenomenon, “forgery” would became necessary for those who desire the preservation of social structure and privileged status.

- When people think back on 2020, it would highly remind people of corona virus. Through this pandemic, people are forced to stay home and to spend more time for themselves. This have allowed people to have freedom from others and judgements being made from the society.

What inspired me to write this: People wish to be accepted by their communities, and individuals observe and note the utility of conforming to trends or codes of desired behavior. So they hide their own unusual or eccentric characteristics and forge themselves to be just like the majority around them. At school, I routinely witness the problem with forgery. Students are expected to wear only certain styles, brands, or makeup in order to be accepted and therefore be treated properly. When an individual fails to copy or conform to the majority-elite, this failing applicant's behaviors are interpreted as being “wrong,” rather than as just being “different.”
