When talking about conforming, there are many different aspects to acting independently from everyone else. There is a difference between wanting to do something that everyone else is doing and mindlessly make a decision because of what everyone else is doing. For example stay at home mothers were often ridiculed by feminist for not wanting to be independent, but this isn't right because if you truly want to stay home with the kids there is nothing wrong with that, but if you are staying home because that is what you have been taught to think then are you not being radically free. Law sometimes make the decisions for us, not because of if they are right or wrong but because we don't want to go to jail. We are responsible for the decisions we make, but to judge someone based on their morals is impossible. No one can tell you that your morals are wrong if they are what you believe.
