Would you ever date a hippie girl/guy?

[Anonymous]

I recently met a hippie girl in a college class. She was alright. Good-looking but not sure if about how she is quite the right girl for me yet since I barely just met her. I won't mind dating her as long as she's not one of those typical extreme hippies who impose anti-military/war, veganism or marijuana on me and still respects my views and accepts me for who I am.

Yes

No

Depends

[thewanderingme]

when I think hippie/hipster (same shit) I think dirty, drug addled, promiscuous (which I'm not against, but would never date), pretentious, bullshitter (living off their parents and/or the system) who eventually dies of an overdose, bringing down as many others with them along the way as possible, or suddenly stops "caring" about anything the moment their parents threaten to cut them off and completely sells out and becomes a yuppie.

no. I'll pass.

[Misslirpa]

Hippies smoke pot, because it's all natural from the earth. Hippies don't use harder drugs that they can overdose on. Hippies are also not promiscuous, they find partners just like anyone else in this world. They also are not dirty, they just don't like chemicals and thus don't use the regular deodorants that most people use. They don't live off their parents, they have regular jobs, they just tend to not be for McDonald's or big corporations, but yes, they become doctors and nurses. Maybe they can be pretentious and assholes, but so can any other type of person.

Until you actually meet a nice 'hippie' person ( not a street person) try not to be so judgmental. Anyone can have bad shit to say about rich people, blondes, a person of a different race, rednecks, etc. if they want, doesn't mean you have to. One of the great thing about being human is we are all diversely different, and there is a beauty in that.

[thewanderingme]

@Misslirpa I don't use chemicals in anything I put in or on my body. I don't even wear deodorant. the foods you consume, in particular fructose and foods high in sulfer, or not getting enough carbs are what cause bad body odor.

a sham doctors feeding off the ignorance of idealistic people ACT like hippies, but no, they are con artists.

your last paragraph is cute. and I agree there's all types in every group, but as I stated, this is what I think of hippies/hipster after years of experience knowing many (too many).

[Misslirpa]

I also don't use chemicals or eat processed or fast foods/junk. I don't have an issue with body odor, but my brother however who is way more organically anal than I, smells like body odor all the time. He also works a very hard physical job, but eats a very healthy diet (not vegan, veggie, or extreme, just balanced).

I just think that calling all those posers and wannabes anything other than just that makes the real hippies look bad. It's sad that anyone thinks something is so cool that they basically just live a lie. I guess we just have different terms. I totally get it, I just prefer to call them something different.

[thewanderingme]

@Misslirpa I forgot to mention the fact that meat also leads to bad bo. he probably has issue properly digesting some of what he eats as well. encouraged him to get some tests done.

[Misslirpa]

He doesn't eat much meat at all, it's usually just the expensive grass fed, local, etc. and kept very minimal. He may, but he's completly content with his habits. It doesn't bother me none, he showers regularly.

[thewanderingme]

@Misslirpa why did you mention he smells bad if it doesn't bother you?

[Misslirpa]

Because you mentioned that eating unhealthy or unbalanced causes body odor, and he eats pristinely healthy. I realize that we could have a debate about meat, but let's just leave it at a disagreement.

[thewanderingme]

@Misslirpa I said no such thing. I said the foods a person eats may cause bad body odor.

[Misslirpa]

Yes, I re-read it before I responded. To clarify, I believe that an unbalanced diet it unhealthy. Too many carbs, fructose, etc.

[thewanderingme]

carbs are fine. most are actually quite good for you. it's the fructose and starchy carbs that are unhealthy. @Misslirpa

[Misslirpa]

Sorry, I meant not getting enough carbs!

[Misslirpa]

"Hippie" nowadays is mostly just a term to discribe a style of people. Tie dye, dreadlocks, clothing made of natural fibers, etc. People who are into yoga, organic foods, meditation, etc. Lovers and followers of peace and community over war and segregation.

A common confusion with hippies is street people, travelers, or homeless people.

It seems a lot of people are confused... Hippies and hipsters are almost completely opposite for example.

[Jxpxtxr]

If I get along with them and they're my type I don't see why not. I imagine it to be quite a lot of fun actually ^^ we could travel to Bali together to do yoga at a temple or do a Europe trip with the hippie bus!

[Bandit74]

Nope, I'd assume she does drugs, doesn't bathe frequently, is excessively argumentative/gets offended easily and has slept around.

Yes, I realize those are assumptions and aren't true in all cases but I really don't care. I can refuse to date someone for whatever reasons I see fit ☺

so yeah, no hippies for me.

[Gommers]

I've tried but there are too many radical posers out there. I'm looking for someone with no social media contact and focus their lives on art and music, not just in it for the scene. I can't even go to festivals anymore because of all the people playing the part that don't actually belong there.

[Thor696]

What's a Hippy Girl? Frankly that term means different things to different people.

A girl who wears tie-dye? No problem.

A girl who doesn't shave her legs or pits? BIG problem.

Or is it a girl with a politically infantile view of the world who believes that if we are just nice to everyone - everyone will be nice to us back? BIG problem.

Then again... if she's HOT... well...

[NerdInDenial]

I hope this works, but that's how I feel.

As long as she practiced good hygiene and didn't talk shit about the military, her being a hippy wouldn't bother me.

[Asker]

Same here. I have an uncle who was once drafted in the US Army during Vietnam and was treated like shit by the hippies (being pelted with rocks). He ended up growing a passionate hatred for them since then and if I ever do date this hippie girl, I'd probably keep her away from him for the sake of her not getting hurt (by my PTSD'ed uncle).

[ThisDudeHere]

Considering the stereotype about them being lazy druggies... nope I'll pass.

[genericname85]

hell yeah, i would :D i find that mentality somewhat beautiful. maybe even if she was the "extreme" type,

[Asker]

What if you still enjoying eating your meat meal and she judges you for it? I love animals and everything but we still have to eat something.

[genericname85]

i love eating meat and i would probably still keep eating it if she´s not there but i could go vegan if she´s around. i´ve allready experimenting a lot and i can actually cook a lot of stuff that´s really tasty and doesn´t need animal products.

[Goldie757]

Nope, only because we would not have much in common.

[SilenRose]

I have a male hippie friend who is pretty cool and respects different points of views to a point.

[MimTcgraw]

Hippie girl is good in the face... but the dreadlocks I don't know Think I would like her natural hair better. There are natural shampoos and conditioners nowadays! :)

[JustMe-93]

As long as they're open minded & won't impose they're beliefs on me as you said.

[ConsultantIsBack]

I lived by SF. like 80% of all females there have some hippieness buried in there. Lol. They are all vegans/vegetarians for example lol.

[sm17deloro]

I had a hippie phase not to long ago... funniest memories ever. I would maybe but I don't know

[Iron_Man]

Not into those kind of girls, but if she's hot i will spend a little time with them

[Noxifer626]

Yeah, why not?
As long as the house doesn't smell like marijuana 24/7.

[Anonymous]

Whats wrong being anti-military/war? I love hippies, they are nice.

[Asker]

The problem is not them disagreeing with war. The real problem is how they show utter disrespect towards our military service members and veterans (especially during Vietnam).

[Asker]

They can disagree agree with war all they want but the least they should do is at least show some respect and appreciation towards the military veterans.

[WhatTheHellAmy]

I would marry a hippie.

[MissNowhere]

OMG YES! ❤ I loveee hippies

[Strider90]

Have fun with your potential STD.

[Misslirpa]

@Strider90 Wow.. Way to stereotype.. you'd be much more likely to get an STD sleeping around at a club.

[Luminiferous_Ether]

@Strider90 you're ratchet.

[Strider90]

@Misslirpa Either way. I don't like clubs and I despise hippies, hermits and all these useful idiots.

[Roostah]

So you'd date this girl?

[ElissaDido]

[Anonymous]
