Do young people in England copy American culture while simultaneously criticising America?
Err well i’m a young English person and to be honest I can’t remember the last time I used any of the expressions above.I don’t have an I love NY T-Shirt, I don’t like Rap or Hip Hop ,although R&B is alright!I like some American films but most American humour I don’t find funny. I’ve never visited America and I don’t expect most Americans are stereotypically stupid and fat. This goes for most of my friends and although some of the ‘lower-classed’ kids do like rap music ,they don’t use the terms above have NY t-shirts are necessarily think American are stupid and fat. I wouldn’t say it was fashionable or ‘hip-hop’ as you put it!
