To quote a bearded man,

i mean whats the difference between a bunch of punks taking an ethos based around a usical idea and a bunch of teenage girls doing the same, who's to say which ethos is right and wrong, it could be argued that girl power had as much an effect on its intended audience as punk did at least people realised it was silly

I agree with this completely to be honest. The whole thing just wreeks of another set of people trying to think they are better than everyone else like emo kids, goths,neds, .......oops.......
