Chapter
9: Popular Culture
Popular Culture is a name for low culture, referring to those cultural products that most people
share and know about; including television, music, videos and popular
magazines. In our society today, you see that everyone is influenced by popular
culture. To narrow it even smaller, you see that in our university, a trend
usually starts every year. Last year, it seemed like it was the fanny pack.
Almost every girl on campus had one. It is one of the most convenient ways to
carry your personal belongings with you anywhere you went without having to
hold a purse. This shows us how popular culture spreads quickly throughout an
environment.
Another trend that is popular because of popular culture
is the “eyebrow” game. The “eyebrow” game is where women or men fix their
eyebrows to look so perfect by cutting it and shaping it to look like a
masterpiece of art. They first start by cutting it, then filling it in with a
pencil, and finally they outline it by using concealer. Many try to be a part
of the trending popular culture but they do not always seem to be the right
fit. This shows us that popular culture can be good but in many cases, it does
not.
