Not least of which is your use of "eschew" when I think you mean "embrace." The next generation seems to be increasing their acceptance of body mods as a form of expression - when you look at the 18 year olds and so on tattooing themselves with some regularity. Which is pretty much the opposite of "eshcewing" something.

I also disagree with the assertion that most of the groups you mention have "come and gone" - they simply became common place enough that media attention was no longer enamoured of them. Feminists, hippies, and punks are all still around - the media stopped covering them is all.

Had I meant to say embrace, I would have clearly written embrace. No, Lizz, I meant what I said, which is why I said it. BTW, I am still waiting for the 12 clicks mob drive by miracle explanation.....but I could hold my breath until I turn blue before that chick will tip up with something sensible.
