Conventions?

All through life we are guided by the collective consciousness, it tells us to shun those who arent academically 'bright', to smile at people who you know bitch about you(boy,is that familiar!), to look through people while walking, to not return a smile to a stranger....
I thought evolution was a state of the mind that developed from independent thinking and power of being an individual.Sadly though, I was wrong.I have come to know, that it is the change in the thinking pattern of the society from warped and stupid to slightly more twisted.For instance, a relationship between a man and a woman can not be platonic and not to forget, the modified corollary, if a man and a woman are seen together, they must be sleeping together.Right?Right!
(thats me rolling eyes)
Apart from the male female bit,there are other irksome conventions that need to be questioned.
Very few human beings are capable of multitasking efficiently,and even fewer have the capability of understanding this fact.Yet judgements are formed based on the non-performance of an individual in an arena in which he wasnt even interested in the first place.Okay maybe thats a really simplistic view or maybe all this is becoming a tad too preachy.
