The practice of an unconventional way of living. People who practice bohemianism (bohemians) often form groups that share similar opinions and mindsets. In the classical sense bohemianism was often about music, art or literary pursuits. However, the modern sense of the word includes those who break societal rules. People classified as bohemians today are often not true bohemians, rather they are people who enjoy risque behaviours and a loose lifestyle that often includes illegal drugs, excessive alcohol and unprotected sex.
Bohemianism is so overrate now a days, is just drugs and dirty sex. There's no romanticism.

What a crude motherfucker that partys all night would be expected to practice. The Bohemian typically drinks large amounts of cheap assed beer all night while looking for cavewomen to Donkey Punch. Usally the Bohemians run together and have partys with other Bohimians because nobody else can stand them.

Movement of artist and poets in late 19th century France, especially in Paris. Bohemians believed in living outside of the bourgeois (conventional, middle class) mainstream culture. Bohemians were against the Salon (the institution that controlled the literary and art market in France until the turn of the 20th century)and believed that art and literature should be radical. They often gathered in "cafes" and drank absinthe. Many Bohemians were politically radical, being either anarchists or members of the Commune de Paris during the Franco-Prussian war. The Bohemian movement died out at the turn of the century but had a large influence on later movements such as surrealism, the beat generation, and punk rock.
Toulouse - Lautrec depicted the romanticized life of many Bohemians, although the reality of the life-style was often very difficult and tragic.

An individual looked upon in society as strange and different. Imagination controls a Bohemian's life, alot of the time destroying them in the process.
Bohemians care very little for money and (some) stay secluded spending their lives creating art, music and literature.

Many famous creations were that of a Bohemian

A person from the Kingdom of Bohemia...
The Kingdom of Bohemia was established september 26 1212.
the lands that were once known as Bohemia are now known as the Czech Republic.
the "bohemians" that were the 'different' artists/poets of 19th century france were simply called that because the french in thier infinite ignorance assumed that gypsy people came from the Kingdom of Bohemia... not even true anyway.
-how can you call yourself Bohemian? your wearing a dress suit and couldn't paint your way out of a wet paper bag...
-my family left the Kingdom of Bohemia for America 130 years ago
