Definition: hippie
hippie
\hip"pie\ n.
Someone who rejects the established culture, dresses
casually, and advocates extreme liberalism in politics and
lifestyle. Used especially of those in the late 1960's,
mostly in their late teens and early twenties, who
conspicuously rejected traditional culture by dressing
casually, if male wore their hair long, and wore folksy or
used clothing adorned with beads, headbands, and often
flowers; they emphasized the importance of love and direct
personal relations rather than success-oriented businesslike
behavior, strove for spontaneity, sometimes lived communally,
and in some cases tried to expand their consciousness by
various psychological techniques such as meditation, or
through the use of consciousness-altering drugs such as
marijuana or LSD. By the end of the Vietnam war in the
1970's, the numbers of people living a visibly hippie
lifestyle had dramatically decreased, though some people
continue to develop similar views and live with the same
outlook.
Syn: hippy, flower child.
