Forging a subcultural identity in the context of gender inequalities, generational bridges and symbolic security in Czech metal

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This study examines the influence of sociodemographic factors and value preferences on membership in the metal subculture through an ex-post-facto cross-sectional survey involving 1251 participants, including 310 metal enthusiasts. Factors such as gender, age and commuting distance from urban areas were analysed across five subcultural aspects: dress style, concert attendance, social media activity, group affiliation and slang usage. Findings reveal that the metal subculture is most prevalent among middle-aged men but maintains shared value foundations across age groups. Gender plays a critical role in value differentiation: while men and women share external subcultural markers like style, their internal value systems diverge significantly. Women act as stabilizing agents, bridging the subculture with mainstream society and mitigating social exclusion. This research highlights the dynamics of subcultural identity, offering insights into its role in shaping personal identity and fostering community cohesion.
