As you pass this group of “punks” on the street, you may think, “Why do they dress in this crazy way?” But for this group, their outlandish hair and clothes are a message that “I’m very different, and I don’t agree with what society says,” and most important, they are a signal to attract other fellow minds: “I’m like you. I’m safe. I have the same ideas about the world.”
