ok, just realized that my post wasn't really all that clear. i actually agree with thrice, in that there is no such thing as a "punk" style of dress, hence the quotation marks in my post whenever i labeled something as "punk", to indicate that the label of "punk" as a style of dress really has no connection to the music other than happening to share the same name, it's simpy a marketing tool that many corporations use to attract people to their merchandise. labeling merchandise as "punk" is completely trivial and yes some people are attracted to it, and others (such as myself) disregard the label and simply look at things for what they are. and just as a short note, i'm a girl.
