My skinhead friends at the christmas party.

I know you are all intelligent people but I have to add this.

skinhead disclaimer. My friends are SHARPS... skinheads against racial prejudice there are many types of skinheads and they are not racist, in america what people consider skinheads are considered by "real" skinheads to be boneheads.

I know black skinheads and even gay skinheads.

So here is a brief idea of the main 3 types.

* Traditional skinheads (Trads, Trojan Skinheads) - They identify with the original skinhead movement (Spirit of 69) in terms of music, style, culture and working class pride. Unlike the other categories, traditionalist skinheads often do not regard attitudes toward racism as central to the subculture.

* Oi! skins and Punk-skinheads - Originating after the development of punk rock, they prefer Oi! and punk music. They often have shorter hair and more tattoos — and wear items such as high boots, tight jeans, T-Shirts and flight jackets. Although the original Oi! bands advocated a pro-worker populist stance, the Oi! fanbase includes a wide range of political beliefs.

* Hardcore skins - A United States-based version of skinheads, part of the hardcore punk music scene associated with bands such as Iron Cross, Agnostic Front, Cro-mags, Sheer Terror, Warzone and Murphy's Law. Originating in the late 1970s, they differ from traditional skinheads by their musical tastes and a style of dress that is less strict. Political views vary, and are not essential to this group.
