DISCUSSION 1: YOUNG PEOPLE LIFESTYLE

The group of 2nd D has worked on this topic. Here you find some of the ideas that have come out in class. Please, write a comment with your opinion. Remember that we are working for and against points of view, so give arguments supporting one of the sides.
- There are different styles in young people: clothes, music, what they do at the weekends, hair styles, vocabulary. Relationships, Thoughts, hobbies

- Different kind of people: Emo, snobs, heavies, posh, skaters, rappers, nerds, punks, grunge, freakies, hippies, rocker, squatters, skins
Looking for a translation of ‘garrulo’, ‘quillo’, ‘rechulón’ (different
concepts?)

- Leisure: snowboarding, sleeping, practice sports, chat mssnger, going out with friends, drawing, studying, travel, playing console games, go clubbing, “botellón”, concerts, watch tv, go shopping, dancing, working, play instrument, go to the gym, listen to music, reading book

- Criticism to their lifestyle: no money, waste of time, no time enough, drugs, alcohol, vulnerable to consume, depressive people, pessimistic, we complain about everything, do not study enough, fights and a lot of violence, possessive, envy, selfish, nonconformist, changeable, capricious, waste of money, sometimes we are not conscious at all of what we are doing., we punish our body through diet.

- Positive Aspects: more variety, a lot of teenagers go away from their parents’nest with a lot of effort, we look for money working, , we want to be free, without worries

- Some people have hobbies like sports, playiing music...healthy hobbies, we have a lot of information, young people are highly informed.

In our opinion, there are many people different in the world, but we have to respect all the styles for people. For expample, styles For example, as hippies styles, "garrulos", "pijos", frikies, rappers .. that are not bad people in general, that's why we must respect them, but there are also sects such as lating kings, "ñietas", etc. .. that we at least have no respect for them, because they do not deserve it (beat and kill people, rape, take all kinds of drugs and alcohol ..)
It is true that some of these styles of people are very painful, but good taste for colors, as the saying goes!
But we must also say that many of these people are shut in these styles because they have no social circle.

Hi, I'm Míriam Pérez.
I think that it doesn't matter what type os style do you like (emo, freakies, heavies...)
For example, I'm in a group where there are many different styles and thoughts, but it isn't important for us. We are close friends, althought some of us only know since last year.
And I love all mu friends!




Byee!

Hi, I'm a student of this 2nd D group.
I think that in this world there are a lot of livestyles and different people.
Is not good to generalize, because not all people feel the same way though we belong to the same group.
also I think that the respect is a very important factor for improve the world

P.D: sorry for my bad english^^

Hi!! I believe that the young people are many different and all the opinions are acceptable.
Each one have a way to speak your mind about on their hobies or ways
for fun in free time.

Hello! I think that is good that there are people with differents styles in the world.
Because if all the people was not different the life would be very boring.

It is necessary to have originality!
Do not be a copy!

Bye!

Well, I think that the lifestyle you are from it doesn't matter much. The problem is the people who take drugs or have dangerous habits (such drink a lot, take drugs or have sex without protection), doesn't matter his lifestyle. On the other hand, the variety of these lifestyles is good. You can learn a lot about them.
There is no one same as another one, so it's necesary the variety of lifestyles.

About the previous comment:
we think that it's true that some latin kings and ñietas might be bad, but like we respect the other stylelifes we must to respect all people, there are good persons around the world also in the worst places.
And now we will critic the society where we live:
the society is lier, we only see that they are shown, the big cicus of the first world. while we are watching the news in television, we think "oh, poor childrens who lives in war and they haven't anything for eat" BUT WHEN WE GO AWAY IN THE STREET WE ONLY THINK IN US...
IN SUM UP, THE SOCIETY IS SUPERFICIAL.

We think that young people have differents styles. This styles are good for the world because if everybody put the same clothes, listen the same music and have the same hobbies, the world would become a monotony place.
These styles can be damaged too because they can provoke conflicts.
In the actuallity there are differents styles: hiphop, heavy metal, but all have positive things and negative things.

We think that in the world there are a lot of styles in the young people,it's normal because of there are more people and who are very diferent.
Each kind of style have a different clothes, music, vocabulary, thoughts, etc.
And also have a differents ways to spend their free time like snowboarding, drawing, go shopping, etc.
We aren't agree with the critic to our livestyle, because not all the young people are the same.
