Yes, too true, anyone who can't break free from peer pressure is more of a wimp. Also, I always disliked the statement "can't take a joke". Some jokes are ok, but some are just plain hurtful and disrespectful. It is like someone saying "can't take a punch?". Of course I can't take a punch! It hurts and damages my body, why would I want to?
