i found it quite unbelievable tat there r quite a lot of ppl,especially adults such as parents,in s'pore who look down on ppl who r into cultures especially cultures like emo,punk,skinhead,gothic,ska,metal & etc..y is tat so i wonder???
whats wrong with that then? people have thier different opinions about music.
maybe your old man disagrees with you listening to metal etc, thats your problem.
And all that (what you're talking about) stems from people expressing their individuality and their likeness or dislikeness for certain kinRAB of music.
Happens a lot.
Someone's always bashing some one for liking emo though. It varies more or less from place to place though
And people look down on it because it's a change. It's different. People, especially adults do not like things to be different. All music scenes have troubled beginnings. Look at the early DC Hardcore scene. Hardcore KiRAB were beaten with bats. And that was true for all of America. People hate change.
