non-conformist 

One who doesn't conform to modern social views. In Western society this would mean listening to whatever you want, wearing whatever you want, etc. regardless of the views of any social group.

It is important to note that those who listen to emo music and wear stereotypically emo clothes, for example, are not non-conformists; they are just brainless prats. They don't actually want to listen to the music that they do, they simply do it in order to fit into a social group (conforming).

There is no non-conformist group; non-conformist refers to an individual. As such, any group of people that say they are non-conformists (for example, goths, emos, punks etc.) aren't actually non-conformist. They are just brainless prats, as described above.

non-conformists do whatever they want, because they can, and they don't care. they like what's in style, what's out of style, and what will never be in style, all because they don't really care about what anyone else thinks. often confused with wannabe non-conformists, who refuse to like anything in style and are conforming to a different set of rules, as opposed to a real non-conformist who doesn't really notice that he or she is not conforming.
everyone thinks non-conformists are just conforming to being a non-conformist.
but we don't care... because that's just your conformed thinking speaking.

wannabe non-conformist: you think you're a non-conformist? you're so emo for wearing black nail polish. so you're not a non-conformist because you think you're emo. ew.

non-conformist: i like wearing black nail polish, but i also dance around in my underwear singing toxic by britney spears. half of my clothes are "emo", but the other half are hot pink. i do whatever i want and i don't care.

wannabe non-conformist: uhmm you're such a poser and a wannabe.

non-conformist: no, it's your conformed thinking that has drawn that conclusion.

wannabe non-conformist: i was jay kay i actually like all that stuff too.

usually, i don't shop at hollister, but if i see a shirt that i like i'll buy it, because being a non-conformist doesn't mean you aren't allowed to shop at typically preppy stores.

There are two defintions of 'non-comformist':
1. A bigot who decides since everyone else like '______' that hey'll be different and hate it. See wannabe non-conformist.
2. A person who doesn't care what anyone else thinks and like what they choose to like, popular or not popular.
Both defintions are considered a weirdo.

1. Everyones wearing watches. I hate watches now.
2. I like watches! In fact, I wear three!

While sometimes hypocritical - it does vary.
You can't generalize on this definition.
there are the hypocrites and those who really truly believe in non-comformity.

hypocritical NC : god, everyone likes modest mouse now ! I liked them 1stt and like so i muss hate them now !

NC : I don't like all that punk rock shit and I won't pretend I do. Sure, you can like it if you want but i'm not going to pretend I do like it.
