Class, Race, Gender, Age, etc.

Cool has changed throughout the years, and has gone through many different stages. Depending on your neighborhood or class you "cool" is different. If your in a rich area your "cool" is being classy with the newest BMW or the hottest tennis racket. If you live in a not so wealthy area such as parts of new york city, your "cool" is determined by whether or not you have the newest Jordan's, clothes or piercings. Then if you live in the projects or a place considered "poor" your cool if your pants are sagging low you don't go to school and you a drug dealer in a gang. Cool is highly based off of social class and race. What happened to every ones cultural math? If everyone is raised based off of different beliefs how can these types of "cool" be made? 

Cool is a sense of power, your with your friends and your cool cause either your funny, really good at something that impresses others, or just charming. I find it weird how if you see to group of kids ( white males, and black males) you would most likely run from the black group because they are more intimidating. Is having an edge to you cool? Is having people run away from you cool? Or is it the sense of control that is cool, because you have the power to control someone emotions. 

Having people think you are cool definitely effects some kids ego based off of race. If a black kid grows up in the projects hanging out on the streets all day and then tries to go to school and graduate high school his former friends make fun of him and he is no longer cool because he wants to switch his cultural math and try an fit into a new class of "cool". I believe that there should be no restriction's on cool, and that everyone should be given the chance to change their cultural math if they want to. 

Whether your black, white, Asian, or Hispanic everyone fits into there own group of "cool" and is accepted somewhere, i do think tho that no one should be discriminated against if they wish to change there path and try a new type of "cool" everyone needs a new them at some point in their life's, so there should always be space for them.
