One’s way of behaving, which one considers as real, in terms of responding, reacting, and showing one’s attitude to the circumstances in which one is situated is continuously being suppressed by unquestioningly accepting the over-imposition of the accepted standards of human conduct, which people at large consider as practical. What society does in the name of practicality, in a way, tries to silence and shape the natural impulses of humans, as a result of which the latter deliberately involve themselves in a process of molding their conduct to fit in the ‘accepted standardized definition of behaving and expressing feelings.’
But
the question is, how natural is the idea of practical behavior itself? Isn't
the ‘considered idea of behavior as pragmatic’ itself the result of its
historical development over a period of time that might not be natural in an
actual sense but with the passing of time becomes 'accepted natural'?
