ok, since every thread on this matter is locked, because, for whatever reason, we feel the need to bash someone for being different. I was hoping we could voice our opinions in an adult way, and not label each other. So what if this kid idolizes Kurt Cobain, so what if he chooses to wear eyeliner, so what if his jeans are ripped. It saddens me to think that people have nothing better to do, than bash someone over the internet.
Ok, so he is into Kurt Cobain because he can relate to him, so what. Almost everyone has someone like that, be it a celebrity, or a personal friend, theres nothing wrong with that. He wears eyeliner "ZoMgZ, TeH gAyZoRz/GoThZzZz!"...no, thats just plain stereotypical. He shouldn't have to explain himself for wearing eyeliner, just like he should not have to explain himself for wearing ripped jeans, it's his preference, why should you have a problem with it? Just because someone is different than you, does not mean they are worse than you, or deserve to be put down. I may not dress like "comebackhitman", or "Blue", but I can see were they are coming from, I am different from them, o well. I have tremendous respect for both of them. You know what the kicker is? I'm only 14, and it saddens me to think that I can be mature about this, while others cannot, and also that this is the way most of America treats those who are "different." so, stop bashing and give them some respect, it's not that damn hard.
