Very basically (and I do mean basically) but I will debate it if people start.

Bohemian, which Bea would be trying for the claim are/were artists/writers that lived for their art, but generally without much sucess so live in poor conditions, in cities in clusters or groups that bond with each other. A cultural reference would be Withnail and I. I would say they are bohemian, not hippy. Key cities would be Prague and Paris (Paris later)

Hippy, Sprung out of the early 1960's counter culture movement (which was heavily influenced by Owsley's LSD) and is more loving and communal, more earthly. Key City being San Francisco.

Both are essentially seen as dirty and drugged up (alcohol and downers for Bohemians, and pot, lsd, mushrooms for the hippies) both have artistic elements, but bohemians strive for artistic recognition (not success but recognition, whereas Hippies are less caring and do it more for the sake of enjoyment). As such can be seen as the same, but in truth they are different.

Bea is not a hippy, nor a bohemian. I have a huge interest in the counter culture, which hippies are a part of, to say Bea is a hippy gives hippies a bad name. Mentioning Aura and stuff doesn't make you a hippy, nor do tarot cards.

I second what Junky said.

Bea is not a bohemian, she is just trying to imitate the clothing style, and failing. Most of the stuff she wears looks like it has been bought at fashionable high street stores, which completely ****ing counters what the bohemian lifestyle is all about.

No she hasn't, but she IS a hippy - a bohemian hippy. IMO.

They are different things though, and it makes no or little sense to call herself that or associated. Its like Freddie describing himself as a Anarchist Conservative. Its either one or the other, you can't really be both as they contradict each other but we still describe ourselves in such ways as we are all complicated people (except Sophie). Its a bit like a vegetarian that eats fish, people except the term, but its wrong.

And she has started already.... bahaha

I do not really want t say but I dislike her more than Lisa.

Even Lisa did not say to Freddie "P**Off".

Are you atching the HLs ? Bea says:"I'm going to be positive today!" - which was followed by the usual stream of egocentric negativity!!!

Lol. I forgot all about clothes, but then Im a tshirt jeans guy so fashion is lost on me. People seem to think the clothes make the person, (too often in our current culture) just shows you how wrong that thought is now.

She keeps saying the word "negative" because that is the word Freddie used about her. So she is shoving it down his and everyone else's throats as she continues to have her tantrum.
