This document discusses stereotypes of indie music subcultures and how the author's music magazine aims to portray them in a more positive light. Typical stereotypes of indie girls and boys include certain styles of clothing, hair, piercings, and drug use. However, not all of these stereotypes are accurate. The author's magazine features models dressed in typical indie clothing but in a more classy way that does not portray the messy stereotypes. This is an attempt to show indie subgroups in a more positive manner and clear misperceptions that they engage in reckless behavior.
