Popular youth subcultures and their problems.

CONCLUSION AND MY OPINION

Today the life of many young people in Russia as well as in other countries of the world is influenced by popular culture. The young follow certain stereotypes that are imposed on then through TV, movies, and,music. In their lifestyle they try to imitate the images of their idols. Other young people are sports and music fans. They frequent stadiums and huge concert halls. They follow their idols in their tours and support them. Unfortunately are intolerant to those who dont share their view. Its a specific aspect of the youth subculture that cant be ignored. But many young people have other interests.
I think that subculture is the culture of those who are dissatisfied with their place in society. Different subcultures have their own beliefs, value systems, fashion, and favorite music.
Subcultures are not that bad as they are they are thought to be. Teens want to show off. But at the same time a lot of teens think about changing the world to the best. Subcultures are for teens. Then, I am sure, teenagers become good citizens. Some who were punks became the main editors of famous newspapers. A subculture is a way of life. Its not a fan club, it is a real life for us.
