what do you know about skinhead culture??
460177
There are different kinds of skins. There are Nazi skins, which most people associate with all skinheads and assume they are all racist. There are other kinds, hammerskins (don't know much about them), SHARPs (skin heads against racial prejudice)and a few others I can't remember. The ones I knew were kind of snobby, and I didn't really talk to them. Oh yeah there were also the straight edgers, but those were just punks period, but skinheads can be straight edge too. God I can't believe I know this.\nI'm not a Skin nor have I ever been, because I think Chelseas are unattractive, and I've just never been interested in the scene.But I have known some, and they can be pretty nice sometimes, (if they're not nazis) but not really my kind of people. It originated in England I think.\nThey usually wear boots or doc martens, with their pant legs rolled up, and sometimes wears suspenders. They always shave their heads, and the girls have their heads shaved on top with hair where the bangs are and at the back, those are Chelseas. (some chick that used to be a lifeguard at the pool by my old house had one) A lot of times the girls will wear plaid skirts. But those are just some basic styles, they can wear anything.\nI don't really know what they're all about, all I've ever seen them do is drink beer and get into fights while listening to Oi Polloi.

typically a skinhead is someone who shaves their head and talks about "white power" and glorifies Hitlers' efforts. they can usually be identified with nazi tattoos, doc marten boots and suspenders on their pants but not over their shoulders. But not everyone who shaves their head is a racist, I have been noticing more and more men who have a receeding hair line or a bald spot on the top of their head just shave it all off.

They like music about feelings---which is what mainly sets them apart from goths. Ususlly if they are true Emos they will dye their hair black and make a patch of red. Thats usually the best way to distinguish them from normal people.

Well, first there is the type of culture where you grow microorganisms in a Petri dish.\n\nThen, there is the type of culture pertaining to a society or group, and it's mainstream beliefs, art, music, and food, etc.\n\nThen there is the type of culture that refers to a person being well-bred, or of high class (cultured).

Sage, as for your question, have you tried a google/Yahoo search?  Or try the Languages section at Yahoo Answers?  Maybe people at Languages may be able to provide you an answer?  :-)  Or try the Social/Culture or Mythology sections.  Perhaps the tattoist may have books on that kinda thing at hisher shop, as well.  :-)  \n\nSOME tattooists are willing to do the work for you---meaning they do the search, etc.  If you ask respectfully and willing to pay a fee or tip for their "extra work", they might be willing to do so.  I had a tattooist do work on my largest tat (shown at my blog). \n\nKoresh, if that is cultural misappropiration, then I am also guilty of it---I have the Egyptian Eye of Horus on my upper back shoulder. :-)  It still remains true to my soul to this day.  Isn't everyone guilty of that to a degree?  Frankly, it is also in my humble opinion that if we "Borrow with Respect" from other religions and cultures, I don't think many adherents of religion/culture would mind.  Imitation is often the highest form of flattery! ;-)\n\nEDIT:  Found this site discussing Sanskirt tattooes---dunno if it will help, but you could read it over and ask questions.  Best wishes!\n\nhttp://www.tattoonow.com/facemaster.cfm?task=message_list&thread_index=136

Ok well yoo know how people label other people who wear black "goths"? .. yeah well.. \nWell the label "emo" is like ummmm... its hard to explain. xD\nBut basically the typical "emo" wears tight clothes, depressed, listen to emo music, wears kinda punky clothes and ummm has an emo fringe\n.. It's all just stereotypical crap really

This belongs to Cultures and Groups, but not to transgendered and homosexual...\n\nAny way, a good way to learn about western culture is to ask questions, so go ahead...

Goths generally like certain kinds of music, but that doesn't mean they hate everything else. I like some kinds of R&B, hip=hop and rap. You've most likely only been exposed to the fakey stuff on the radio. That's not real rap or hip-hop. And it probably isn't the music you hate, it's the ideas; misogyny, violence, materialism, the glorification of poverty and ignorance. Take away these unflattering items and all you have left is a style of singing and musical beats that may or may not be to your liking. Hope that cleared things up! ;)

Gothic culture actually started out as an offshoot of punk culture in the early 80's.  They have the same roots and share a non-conformist attitude and unconventional clothing.  The big difference is the way the two groups deal with the messed up world we live in.  Goths tend to get depressed about it, and often use sarcastic humor or emotional behavior to cope with it.  Punks are more likely to be angry and confrontational about problems.  From this fundamental difference comes the distinct clothing, music, and lifestyles that epitomize the two cultures.

Hmm...for the real goth information go to goth.net.  I don't think I could give you  a comprehensive explanation here. Wikipedia surely has some entries for 'emo'. Well, good luck.  P.S. thank you for not accepting stereotypes! :)

I believe I can help here...I recently read a story from Kevin Sites Hot Zone web that told a story about Haitians who eat "mud pies".  The two links below give the original story, AND the blog that resulted from the overwhelming interest in it.  I hope this helps you understand a bit better.\n\nIf you read the entire blog (the second link), you'll see that there are references to Kenya and the tradition of eating "dirt".

1. Presumably the words "What are the ..." are missing from your question. If you can't be bothered to ask a proper question, you can hardly expect to get a proper answer.\n\n2. I would suggest these as a start:\na) traditional/folk music\nb) traditional costume\nc) normally danced either in pairs or as a larger group\nd) likely to be practised:\n(i) in rural or small urban areas (not in cities)\n(ii) where culture is perceived to be under threat of suppression or extinction.\n\n3. You should find out what you can on the internet. Yahoo! Answers is not a great place to get answers to a question such as this. I recommend searching at www.dogpile.com

I am Cajun. The music is a testament to the spirit of the people!  Type in Zydeco and see what comes up!!! So much fun to dance to. For a taste of hispanic culture, Gypsy Kings... or Spanish Guitar (Cuba) try Otmar Liebert...magnifico! I listen to so many cultures I could go on and on.  Peter Gabriel did a compilation of the music of artists from around the world called "One World".  Here you will find the name of artists from Africa, Japan etc...Enjoy!

Goths are the ones who think they are superior than "normals" of a society they cannot define, but throw the word around a lot. Wears black, boots, long coats, concert shirts of black metal bands or whatever. They wear all this crap over their face because they are "unique" but all look alike when you look at them in a whole. You can can tell one when they say "stop staring at me" or "I am unique and my own person" Yet they all wear black, white/dark make up and have all this crap in their face. Yeah no one is going to not stare at that and no you are not unique if you are labeled, groups of similarity are labeled, or else there would be no need to label! (That last part can go for each you asked of)\n\nEmos are the "new age" goths, but instead of black and all, they wear these "prep" clothes with a twist of "hardcore" They think everything is dramatic and out to make their lives crappy. When if they looked at themselves, they would see it is them that make their life miserable and not the ones around them. Emo(tional) they claim not all cut themselves, but when you look at majority, it is like goths they are labeled for a reason with their ways and actions. They area bunch of dramaqueens, and I say that for both boys and girls that partake in the 2004-present trend of todays dumb teens.\n\nPunk is against the "establishment" the almighty "Man" In other words they wold prefer anarchy so they can do whatever they want without consequences, they take no responsibility of their actions. Hippies in a way, but more on the extreme side, the anti-hippie, instead of peace and loving order, they prefer anarchy and do what they want without remorse. Bums really, mainly they are so stoned out their minds all they do is sit around complaining how the "Man" is keeping them down and trying to overthrow the "establishment" again what is this "establishment?"\n\nI could go on and on about these groups, and yes, some I have been with, and noticed they are all the same and well, they have labels for a reason and none of them are unique, if anything they are apart of their "society" "establishment" and crappy lives because it is all so dramatic and a harsh world. I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL THEY GET OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL AND EXPERIENCE THE REAL WORLD!!
