Each person is interesting in his own way, everyone believes that he is unique. But if you bring such unique people together, you get what is commonly called the "gray mass." But some particularly bold and eccentric personalities dislike being like everyone else. They want to be truly noticed, distinguished from the crowd, appreciated. And for the sake of this, they are ready for a lot of things, including experiments with their own appearance. So, in the mid-70s of the 20th century, one of the subcultures was born, the representatives of which are called freaks or, more simply, freaks.
Who are freaks and why do they deliberately spoil their appearance? We, mere mortals, cannot understand this. Nevertheless, adherents of this strange subculture are becoming more and more, and these people are quite happy. Most often, this is a very
creative person, bold, ambitious, unconventional thinking. Many people think that it’s not from a great mind that these people disfigure themselves, as if they had nothing more to do. However, it is not. Any freak whose photo is shocking, like any normal person, has a job in which, I must say, he is very successful. Otherwise, where would they get so much money for unusual plastic surgeries, tattoos, piercings and other expensive ways to disfigure (or decorate?) Themselves? Such people are real creators, they are always full of new original
ideas, and they have the courage to successfully implement them.
Who are freaks and how can they be distinguished from other people? It is very simple. It’s simply impossible not to pay attention to freaks, they can be seen from afar: strange and even wild hairstyles of acid colors, crazy makeup, bright and defiant outfits, a large number of tattoos all over the body, piercings wherever possible. Particularly “advanced” ones can surgically build up horns or vampire fangs, remove ribs, make a scar on their face, cut their tongue, etc. Look at the photo of freaks - and everything will become clear to you.
Although these people really like to be in sight, to shock others with their appearance and extreme actions, they are still
ordinary people, albeit with unusual thinking and lifestyle. They are smart, erudite and educated. It’s just that they’re bored of living an ordinary life, so they strive to turn it into a daily holiday. These are eternal party people. They are always happy to see them at
private parties, in fashion clubs and at other entertainment events. That's who freaks are. They are free from conventions, independent of the opinions of others, and they like it.
Perhaps, from the point of view of psychology, it might seem that these people were deprived of attention at the time and had a bunch of complexes, which served as an impetus for a cardinal reincarnation. Even so, one must have remarkable inner strength and courage to step over one’s fears. After all, someone remains a loser notorious for life. And who are freaks? These are those who were not afraid once to radically change their lives, even if in such an unusual way. After all, as they say, eyes are afraid, and hands do. And the longer and harder they do, the better it turns out. And once it begins to seem that you knew how to do this all your life.
