WANTED: Hippie Girlfriend

I am, by far, not a hippie.

I was born in the 80s, was raised middle class white in the 90s and went to art college in the 00s. Though I foolishly toyed with socialism, I was tortured by the concept that in the ideal world the schizophrenic homeless men I see on the street somehow owned a small portion of my television set.

However, I do like hippie women.

If you dress like a hippie, but aren’t, or dress indistinctly but hold hippie values, you fall into one of multiple Venn Diagrams of girls I find attractive.

You should contact me so I can either wildly disagree with your worldview or “dig on” your “threads.”

Do not reply if you dress like a hippie AND have hippie values. I’m not interested in that homogeny and feel like our social interactions would mostly consist of mutual criticism.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve had just about enough of that with my other friends.

Let’s “jam” on some “vibes” together as you explain to me either the slang that I’m using or the pants you are wearing.
