Meet the multividuals (subcultures)

Here is a link to an interesting article that appeared in the Sydney Morning Herald in 2005. It talks about subcultures and the way that young people are becoming increasingly difficult to put labels on as they don't neatly fit into these subcultures but are inclined to mix and match certain aspects of them to create unique hybrid identities; 'Meet the multividuals'.

The wikipedia entries on Subculture and youth subculture are useful springboards (starting points) for exploring the influence subcultures can have on individual and group identity and belonging.
