Logan Feys The Sociology Of Leopard Man

Leopard Man Opinion Essay Every human has their own wants, one of them often being the feeling that they belong. But with this goal many lose what makes humans so great, and that which is being an individual. As Logan Feys also states this in his article “The Sociology of Leopard Man,” “ To be human is to be an individual human.” And Tom Leppard (a.k.a. Leopard Man), has to certainly be one of these individuals. Feys uses Tom Leppard to support his idea on why “Most of the time you should be an active and contributing member of society. But from time to time, get society out of your life and out of your mind” (10). Logan Feys argues that “Ordinary people fear what they don’t understand. They especially fear loners, those mysterious creatures
who pursue their own values without seeking others’ permission or permitting others to hamper them (4).” I find myself thinking a bit differently on Feys statement though. Not everyone fears the individuals who do what they want with themselves. Many people actually look up to those kind of people, because it shows they can also do what they want as well, without worrying about being judged. And people wouldn’t worry about being judged since they feel like they “belong” with those kind of individuals. Everyone acts, think, and feels different from one another. Everyone also have different kinds opinions or beliefs on certain ideas. This being it’s impossible for everyone to agree on the same thing
