Neo-Hippie

First off it's a noun.
Neo-Hippies call themselves hippies or modern hippies. First off they are kind hearted like the 60's hippies. They are called neo-hippies because their views are different in a few ways from the first hippies. As usual stereo typed like all people are. they are one against stereotypes and are their own people like the 60's hippies were. they have some common goals like peace and freedom. they are called neo for adding new beliefs like budaism and vegitarism. i'm not saying all believe in that stuff just some. as usual dressing their own way away from the norm. they are okay with gays, bi's, lezbains, and non-sexauls but that doesn't make them one. neo-hippie and hippie are so deep and vary between people you can't really define it. p.s. NOT ALL do drugs and not take showers.
"hey man what's up"
"just chillen."
"coo cool, i got the nic hippie now"
"dude get over it you're a neo-hippie for liking guns and training to use a sword."
"but i'm peace loving and kind hearted plus i'm in the top"

Neo-Hippie

Neo-hippie (or just hippy) is a name given to modern hippies, who, while retaining some aspects of the '60s hippie movement, have changed in some areas, for example by embracing punk values of anarchism, anti-establishmentarianism, feminism and acceptance of homosexuality.

Along with goths they form part of the middle-class backlash against chavs, seeking to disassociate themselves with what is seen as a working class, conventional standard, they have created their own distinct youth subculture.

Often seen on skateboards, listening to Green Day/Nirvana, moshing, wearing Vans (wide tonged skate shoes) and/or combat trousers.

neo-hippie

Someone from suburbia who sees hippies as a way to find some identity and be "original" and can't have ideals without taking on some sort of stereotypical act. Most neo-hippies come from suburbia and don't do much to save the world other than go to concerts, smoke pot, and maybe vote democrat or for the green party. Most of them think they are outside the mainstream, while the mainstream mocks them with hippy leaning commercials and sells hippy style clothing because it's what's in and sells to those surbubia kids who want to be rebellious(go look in most stores and you will see its the in clothing). Basically, a neo-hippy is the same as a goth, a prep, whatever, and they have no originality and call themselves names like gypsy and such because they can't take a real effort to be themselves or original for that matter.
