Best Answer

because he feels he belongs with the greasers.

-Well yes, but actually he is a greaser because of the way he was born. He grew up on the north side with the rest of the greasers and has a tough attitude. Being a greaser is about your attitude, not just by deciding to join. It isn't anything like, for example, joining the crips where you have to start wearing all blue and stuff. Greaser is about the way you are. Remember how Dallas Winston never had grease in his hair? That's because he didn't need it to prove that he was a greaser.

tl;dr Two-Bit is a greaser because that's just the way he is.
