Japanese Youth Cultures
The youth culture in Japan has a wide amount of sub-cultures which seem innocent and sweet although they have an undercurrent of a darker nature.
There are many grown adults still dressing as part of the youth culture as there as many fans of these styles.
The style of dress possibly started as an act of rebellion against the strict standards in social culture and they are seen as turning against traditional customs.
Standards in Japan are set very high and all children are expected to have the highest grades and get into top universities so that they can get the best jobs.
The youth culture is still relatively new compared to youth cultures from western societies.
