As an avid TV rerun watcher, I saw an episode of "Leave It To Beaver" when Wally wanted to get a plaid suit for a school dance and his parents talked him out of it, then he got a plain old dark suit. That show was way back 40 years ago, I think Wally would have had more fun in the suit he wanted, regardless of what other people might have said. Conformity is publicized fear of being different.
