why do high school cliques shun?

RE_Fan

in my school all the so called "popular" kids listen to rap, hip hop, and all that, but for some reason the huge majority of them do not like anything else and they cant stand to hear genres like rock, metal, grunge, ect.  And even worse they shun and make fun of the kids who do. I am neither popular nor shunned im right in the middle but i was bored and curious on what your responses are to this subject. in my school all the so called "popular" kids listen to rap, hip hop, and all that, but for some reason the huge majority of them do not like anything else and they cant stand to hear genres like rock, metal, grunge, ect.  And even worse they shun and make fun of the kids who do.

Same thing in my school. They are pretty single minded when it comes to music. We were listening to The Beatles in my English class and most of the popular kids claimed they sucked because the the music "didn't flow together". Same thing in my school.

High school groups shun people because they think their dicks are bigger than everyone else's, and are just socially retarded. You're pretty much socially retarded until long after college.

I actually wore a Metallica shirt to school one day, and this one dude said that Metallica sucked and that Van Halen was way better. I'm not against Van Halen, but this kid probably listens only to Halen. Rap vs. Rock is one thing, but rock vs. rock is actually upsetting to me.

I think Rap Vs. Rock is one of the most stupid arguments, since people who listen to Rap usually know nothing about Rock.
And by the way, I think you're overreacting. He says Metallica sucks, it's an opinion. What's wrong with listening to Van Halen if you enjoy it?

I agree, but i think that it should just be the fact that it is all rock. We should all be like "you like rock, I like rock, why don't we just rock out?"

I get a huge amount of crap for listening to Iron Maiden. However, my grade has a relatively large (about 4 people) group of people who listen to just about everything, with me in it, so I'm good :) I get a huge amount of crap for listening to Iron Maiden.

That's hilarious. Shit flows both ways. The people who write off rap completely also don't know anything but soulja boy or lil wayne.

You get crap for listening to Maiden. Unbelievable 8-o.

Good news though guys (and girls) High School is not the real world and when you're done with school the cliques pretty much fall away.

It is quite sad though because a large percentage of people will always judge and attack what they don't understand instead of trying to learn more about it or being accepting of the others choice.
