Why don't people wear hats anymore? I sat around in my classroom today and only three people were wearing hats. One a boy with a typical baseball cap, another boy with a striped sock cap, and a girl with a beret. It is freezing out, so it makes sense. For some reason the other thirty students in the class did not get the memo. I think wearing hats has been conditioned out of our society. Some people think it is disrespectful, other associate hats with laziness. However, that is not the case. Hats are just another way to make yourself an individual.
Being conditioned to not wear hats, reminds me of the same argument of creativity. Society ostracizes people who go against the grain. It makes no sense when you really think about it. I am guilty of it too. I often find myself assuming the same way society does, but I am on my way to completely breaking free. Noticing random things everyday really helps me grasp how impacting others are. I am going to take it to heart and wear a hat to class one day, because I want to.
