skinhead

one who shaves his head, wears boots, and represents the working-cl-ss. there are three variations of skinhead. traditional, racist, anti-racist.
skinheads romp da romp romp.
a guy or girl who believes in working cl-ss values and respects those who share the same beliefs. not all skinheads have shaved heads, wear suspenders or wear boots, but these are good signs. not all skinheads are racist, but unfortunately some are. they are “boneheads” to the rest of the skinhead world because of the blemish they have put on a proud group of working cl-ss kids. skinheads are of every race, every religion, because it’s not who you are, what race you are or any external factor. it’s what is in your heart. traditional skins look to their english and jamaican roots for their lifestyle and thier music (oi, punk, ska, reggae, rockabilly). sharp (skinheads against racial prejudice) skins are the democrats of the skinhead world, accepting all and defending thir way of life. a skinhead friend of mine once told me that he only fights for 3 things: his family, his friends and his honor. this is what is important to skinheads, not “protecting the white race” or to carry out hilter’s unfinished work.

it’s something you are. it’s not a style. it’s not a fad. it’s a way of life. skinheads will live on as long as there fat cats in power who don’t give a sh#t about the youth of today. we’re proud, we’re pi$$ed and we’re here to stay.
“the hebrew hammer aka zak” got the sh#t kicked out of him by a traditional skin he was bad-mouthing. with your intolerance, you’re no better than the very n-z-s and supremacists you ridicule. open up your eyes before a real skinhead opens up your skull, free of charge…”

“that skinheads braces are almost as wide as he is.”

“great big boots
grimy laces
pants held up by scarlet braces
get out of my way
or get sent for a ride.
we’ve just got violence in our minds”
the last resort
a subculture that developed in 1960s britain by combining elements of english mods and immigrant jamaican rude boys. they mainly listened to ska, reggae and soul music. in the 1970s, some were also influenced by the punk rock scene and began to listen to oi! music, also known as streetpunk.
look at that skinhead beating up that n-z-!
skinheads first started to appear durring the late 60’s in england. skinheads were an off shoot to the mods and football(soccer)holligans called “boot boys”. they took great pride in their dress and a proper skinhead could be seen wearing a b-tton down brutus, ben sherman or any proper shirt. braces(suspenders, not the fat hillbilly grandpa kind but thin)a levi jacket or an american flight jacket. levi staprest trousers, blue jeans and sometimes cammo pants, allthough the combat trousers were not worn until the revival and the comming of punk rock.fred perry polo shirts are also very popular with skinheads as are v neck sweaters and vests. music listened to by skinheads from the 60’s to 70’s could consist of reggae, ska, soul, glam such as slade, mott the hoople, small faces. with the punk scene in the 70’s came a rebirth of the skins allthough this time the look was exageated a bit, boots were higher and bleached jeans and combat fatigues could be seen worn by the new breed. during this time a right wing political group known as the national front (nf)started using skinheads as p-wns (polit-tians both right and left have tried using the scene for their own gain). there were many punk bands that were being followed by the skins, notably bad manners (ska) sham 69, skrewdriver( before the n-z- days)angelic upstarts.shortly a new breed of punk music was born thanks to bands like the c-ckney rejects, this music was called “oi!”, notable oi! bands are; the 4skins, last resort, snix, early skrewdriver, red alert. skinheads reached america at the end of the 70’s/early 80’s and there has always been a close connection between the american skin and the hardcore scene. bands such as agnostic front, cro mags, murphy’s law and warzone all had members who were skins or friends with skins. today there seems to be a new trend of extreme left wing skins, redskins, communist,socialist,anarchist, who seem to be being used by politics yet again, most however grow up and realize extremist politics are a no win game. not all skinheads are racist but some definately are. on the west coast (usa)many skins grow up being somewhat influenced by the chicano gang culture (cholo)it is not uncommon to see skins looking a bit more like cholos, after all skinheads have always been a gang subculture.
oi! oi! skin head, get yer hair cut!
a guy with a shaved head that listens to punk and ska. repesents the woking cl-ss. not all skinheads are racist!!!!!! i am a skin and i have plenty of black, hispanic, and jewish friends!!!!!!
the only good skinheads are the sharp ones
skinheads are not n-z-s!!!! n-z-skins are called boneheads. skinheads are people who take pride in their working cl-ss heritage and often listen to oi, reggae, or ska. the skinhead culture began in jamaica, and was very closely tied to the rude boy culture. some of the original rude boys were also considered the original skinheads.
wow! that skinhead is not racist!
