Best Answer

Because it's awesome. People might think punk is about the clothes, the fashion or whatever, but it is about attitude and standing for what u believe in. It had a big influence on people. The punk bands were telling us don't take crap from nobody. punk was the best thing that ever happened in the 70's. It got people a chance to be themselves and not caring what people thought. Punk was incredible, brilliant, and rebellious.

What activities exactly? Moshing because it's freeing, and uniting...it's like "I'm getting my butt kicked, but so are you, we're in it together celebrating someting we all love". As far as vadalism, grafitti, etc., it's all about sticking it to the man, causing the sheep to be uncomfortable.

How do you change from being a prep to a punk?

To be punk you listen to punk music; wear crazy punk spiked-up, bold colored hair; and have a punk attitude. If you are a true prep you can never be even kinda punk, and if you are copying someone or you brag about being punk -EVER- you can never be punk. A change from a prep to a punk simply can not happen if you are really preppy, even if it is the very desire of your heart. ____________________________________________________________________________ Just be yourself. Dress how you want to dress, listen to what you want to listen to. Just be comfortable in your own skin and you won't feel the need to fit yourself into someone else's mold.
