An individual.“ A skinhead explains, “We dress in a way we want to, it’s an image, we’re just following an image.“ A teenage girl defines herself as a punk, “It just means being different from everybody else.“ She may get a hard time from the skinheads and mods about her appearance, but is confident in her choice of tribe, Punk wants to change society fr
