Definition of subculture in Oxford English Dictionary is a cultural group
within a larger culture, often having belief or interests at varience with those of
larger culture. In addition, another definition of subculture which is centres on
cultural substance and is hence stripped of its former connotations of youth,
working-classness, collective resistance and devience.
Subculture can be perceived as negative due to their nature of critism to the
dominant societal standard. In this situation, subculture feels neglected by social
standard and allows them to develop a sense of identity. Subculture can be
identified through clothing, music such as skinhead and punk, fashion, argot and
mannerism
