Chapter 99 De-orbit of the Celestial Camp

Although the nudist camp rejects the society's existing norms on clothes, it pursues another set of rather strict norms. Members of the naturist camp don't wear clothes. They either think that clothes are a kind of bondage against nature, or they think it is a sign of class, so they refuse to wear clothes.But because the vast majority of people in society wear clothes, they become a small number of derailed people, and they have to form their own groups and undress in special camps. The common misconception is that these derailers who refuse to wear clothes are a bunch of bold, lecherous, shameless social scum, but this is not the case.According to the investigation by Hartman, a sociologist at California State University, although the members of the naturist camp reject the existing social norms about clothes, they pursue another set of quite strict norms in their groups. Contact, even couples, cannot hold hands or hook shoulders when walking on the road.Staring at each other's naked body for a long time is considered very bad behavior, unless the stare is eye-to-eye, and members of the nudist camp are proud that they can only do eye-to-eye stare.

From the example of the celestial body camp, it can be seen that those who have derailed from society are opposed to certain social norms, rather than advocating that society does not need to have norms.In fact, the new norms formed in subcultural groups are often stricter than the original social norms.We can see this phenomenon even more from the revolutionary groups and gang groups that have existed since ancient times. Revolutionary groups want to overthrow the old social norms, and gang groups continue to harass the existing social norms, but their internal organizations are extremely strict. , the class is distinct, orders are like a mountain, and there is iron-like discipline.

Humans are social animals, and when a certain number of people get together, social norms will naturally form.When a person faces social pressure, they yearn not only for freedom but also for order, and social norms are the dialectical relationship between freedom and order.
