I'd also like to add that I regard pointed and total rejection of "social norms" about the same as I regard total adherance to social norms. Either way, one is letting themselves be defined by those norms. I much prefer to take the middle road, i.e. take from social norms what works and is useful for me, and "rebel against them" when it works and is useful for me.
