Gajin, to a degree I like where you're coming from, but there still are certain societal structures that I don't enjoy.
Formality is a big one.

You wanna wear a loving T-shirt to my wedding? That's totally cool with me - whatever is comfortable for you.
If I was a teacher? Don't call me by my last name. That's annoying to me - I'm a huge advocate of the idea of "we're all humans and are equal as beings".

Gajin, you also have to realize that some of us live in areas where we are, simply stated, one of the 'smart ones'. I live in Hollywood, where every other kid is a weed-smoking skateboarder who produces stuffty hip-hop. Either that, or a depressed angsty teenager who cuts themselves for no logical reason.
