9. Tom Leppard is called "Leopard Man" because he is tattooed from head to toe with leopard spots, and he intentionally act like a leopard. He lives in solitude in the wilderness, away from society.
10. The author finds himself unimpressed with individuals who radically alter their appearance through extreme tattooing, piercings, and hair mutilations. He has these opinions being he believes that some people change their appearance just for attention from others.
11. Leopard Man is different from other tattooed and pierced people because he doesn't live for other peoples reactions. He lives in solitude, so he has no one to impress, which is his decision.
12. Leopard Man lives in a small cabin in the Scottish wilderness.
13. Society looks down upon freakish and extraordinary individuals alike and views them with suspicion. They especially fear loners, those mysterious creatures who pursue their own values without seeking others' permission or permitting others to hamper them.
14. Conformity can be seen as the world's most prevalent and most pernicious psychologists disorder. The consequences of it are no less than the suppression and destruction to one's self. Feys argument in this paragraph is that human are meant to be different, and living in society, we are under constant pressure to be different in almost everywhere we're at.
15. Leopard Man is happy because he is free. He lives in solitude and he has no worries about people judging him for who he is. He states, "As far as I'm concerned, if there is a paradise on Earth, I'm in it. You're welcome to what you've got. I'll keep this."
