Definition of HIPPIE
: a usually young person who rejects the mores of established society (as by dressing unconventionally or favoring communal living) and advocates a nonviolent ethic; broadly : a long-haired unconventionally dressed young person

This is so weird- my generation were the hippie flower children of the 1960's Now we cannot be hippies due to age??!

Yes- redefining and reclaiming must occur!!

I don't think hippies should at all be defined by age - especially as a person who grew up around original austin hippies. Plenty people are no longer hippies, but plenty still are.
