Interviews:

Amy:

1.How did people react when they saw you?
-Most people stared or laughed, whispered, or pointed. Everyone thought it was pretty funny.

2. would it make you uncomftorble to be a counterculture?
- Yes, I felt very uncomftorble and less secure. It almost makes you less self confident.

-Both, I like the clothes I wear but my trends fit in with everyone elses.

4.Are you afraid to be yourself?
-No, but I don't like to stand out or cause attention to myself.
5. Do you think people who dont follow the "Norms" of society are treated differently?
-I think people invloved in countercultures are treated differently. Everyone was staring at us like we had 3 eyes.

5. Do you think people who dont follow the "Norms" of society are treated differently?
-To an extent, but I treat people based off of my opinion of them formed by what they have done.


Myself

1.How did people react when they saw you?
-They mostly laughed, or looked at us as if we were different then them.
2. would it make you uncomftorble to be a counterculture?
-Yeah, it made me a little bit insecure and I was nervous to dress like that.
3.Do you think you follow trends just to fit in? or do you really like them?
- I follow some trends, sometimes I like to wear something a little bit more edgy then the normal trends. I will stear a little bit away from trends but I am not daring enough to do anything extreme.

4.Are you afraid to be yourself?
-Sometimes, I think people will judge me, and they do.

5. Do you think people who dont follow the "Norms" of society are treated differently?
-Yes people made me realize how hard it is for people in the outcast. It's almost as if people treat them as less of a person, like their feelings don't matter. I also think people pick on them because they are easy targets and people are mean.

Sister:

1.What would you consider a counterculture?
-People who act out against society
2. would it make you uncomftorble to be a counterculture?
-Not if I believed in what I was being different for.

3.Do you think you follow trends just to fit in? or do you really like them?
- For the most part, some trends just grow on me also it is kind of hard to buy clothes that are not in style because they don't really sell them.

4.Are you afraid to be yourself?
-Sometimes

5.
Do you think people who dont follow the "Norms" of society are treated differently?
