Subculture

so this is what i learned today in Sociology!

Subculture
Groups which have a great deal of internal interaction, supporting institutions, and some form of distance from the larger culture often develop local characteristics within the host culture. These local cultures are referred to as subcultures. Subcultures are sometimes physically isolated from the centres of dominant culture; they often have unique dress, lifestyles, and vocabularies.

Who knew i would be learning about Battalion today! i especially like the last line, dress, lifestyle, and vocabularies. ha a million things come to mind when i read those words! have a great day!
