I'm getting the impression that there are some types who will just never have respect for someone who actually able to (or honest enough to) identify with a particular culture. I don't see how insulting and dismissing those in a scene just out of principle is any better than people in a scene insulting and dismissing those not in the scene, also just out of principle.

Swanky, I appreciate what you said and take it to heart, but I think you were only speaking for yourself. There are others who are quite obviously insulting people just for the sheer heck of it. I guess if I want to be an inclusive and mature individual, I have to dress according to mainstream fashion and not have any friends who share similar tastes and interests.
