What do you think about Bangkok's Gangsters?
The similarities between Bangkok's Gangsters and the definition of cultural appropriation is that even if it is not common in people to make things that are unusual on their culture, people may feel identified through dressing style and the music that they heard. For example in this case Thai are comfortable about wearing mexican's gangters style.
The difference that I can see is that stereotypes of Thai people make us think that they are disciplined and because of that it will be easier to identify this subculture. It does not matter if the clothing is popular because their style( particulary clothing and music) it is not common in Thailand.
I think society can not be allow to limit the others personalities, the way their dress, the way they do what ever the like to do. I support this kind of hobbie. I prefer this phenomenon as a hobbie and not as a lifestyle.
Hi Laura, nice blog!. I also believe that the society can not allow to limit others personalities, for this reason i am favor of the cultural appropriation, because it permit to the people do the thing that they want although it was not own of this subculture.
