All my life I have liked punk, industrial, and independant music. I have gone to a few good shows and had relationships with nice like-minded people (who I would consider people to label as "punks"). For the simple reason that I dress in a certain manner and only usually show a few of my "body art" pieces, necessitated by the environment that I am in during the day, people judge me as "preppy".
I hope here that I can find some level of acceptance from like minded people if for no reason other than they can't see how I am dressed to tell me that I can not be a "punk".
"punk" is your state of mind, it is how you live, not necessarily determined by how you dress..... in my opinion at least
