Thai gangsters are a group of people that
feel very close representing by “Mexican gangsters”. They are an excellent
example of cultural appropriation because they want to look like people from
another subculture from another country. We can learn that stereotypes about
people are very wrong in some cases. For example the stereotype of Thai gangsters
suggest that they are murderers, bad guys,
drugs addict , that is people who are involved in dark business. But really the real condition is that they are people who
served to society such as policeman, technician, teachers of oriental medicine
and even being a government like Yu Yammatu. In spite of Thai clothes, tattoos,
and hairstyles emulate those sported by real homies, they have
another beliefs and conception. They think that Mexican style reflects their
life’s so well because it is very clean and easy, just a t-shirt and a pair of
jeans. “The clan and simple stile” is what catch the attention of those men.
One more important thing to learn about
Thai and Mexican subcultures is the feeling of friendship that predominates in
the group. Everyone loves one another and all they are agree to listen hip-hop
music in order to express what they are feeling.
