A hippie (or hippy) was originally a person in the 1960s or 1970s who was considered to be part of the counterculture movement of that time. They were also called "flower children." They were generally politically active (against the Vietnam War, for civil rights, etc.) and liberal-minded, and some experimented with psychedelic drugs, free love, and other movements of the time. Men and women often had long hair and dressed in bell-bottoms, tie-dye, peasant tops, and other similar kinds of clothing. They were also into psychedelic Rock Music such as The Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, the Doors, etc. Some even moved to communes or to other countries.
These days, people tend to call anyone (even of younger generations) a "hippie" if they listen to say, the Grateful Dead, Phish, or any of the newer-generation "jam bands" or if they dress in the "hippie" fashion.
