The Word Is Given: recusant

recusant
adj 1: (of Catholics formerly) refusing to attend services of the
Church of England [syn: dissentient]
2: refusing to submit to authority; "the recusant
electors...cooperated in electing a new Senate"- Mary
W.Williams
n : someone who refuses to conform to established standards of
conduct [syn: nonconformist] [ant: conformist]

Being a nonconformist, I decided to call myself a recusant because everyone else was using nonconformist and I wanted to be different.
