Subcultures refer to distinct groups within a larger culture that share values, norms, and practices that differ from those of the dominant society. These subcultures often form around common interests, beliefs, or lifestyles, and may include elements such as fashion, music, language, and social behaviors that set them apart from mainstream culture. Subcultures can provide a sense of identity and belonging for individuals who may feel marginalized or alienated from the dominant culture, and can serve as a means of resistance or rebellion against societal norms and expectations.
