Do you consider metalheads to be friendly people in general?
I think every subculture has its share of all kinds.

I'm a MallGoth and I don't consider myself extreme or unfriendly at all. I'm actually very nice(or at least I think so)to people. Some people can be jerks. They think all because you're part of a subculture you can rub it in people's faces. I've learned the more you talk about your subculture the more people who aren't a part of it will think it's a "phase". Also, there is no age limit on subcultures. I'll be the same way I am right now forever

I think they're pretty nice. When I was in college I was into punk. At heart, I'm still a punker. I also got into metal a big way. So far, I've seen KISS, Judas Priest, System Of A Down, Blue Oyste Cult, the Plasmatics, Iron Maiden and Zebra live. All good shows, all positive audiences.

The real metalheads that I've met (Classic/True death/Black/Doom) have been alright, mostly cool down to earth people. They've given me free tix a lot of time to their local shows. There's always going to be asshats in every group, but I don't let those people effect my opinion. I've met ton of hip/trend following hot topic people who claim to be metalheads, and they are just painful to interact with in most of my experiences. Usually they are snobby, spoiled little brats, with bad taste.

Us MallGoths come in my shapes, sizes, personalities and families(my mom actually encourages the way I dress). But you are correct in a way. There are snobs and brats wherever you go. I don't just lurk around other MallGoths. There aren't really many where I live. I'm friends with many different people.
And I listen to other things other than Metal. Not Lady Gaga and One Direction but music that is listened to people of my subcultures. Yup, I'm pretty chill.

They give the real metalheads a bad name, all these stupid hot topic hipsters who have no idea on metal's vast history are usually the ones you have to watch out for.

Just when I thought I had figured out what exactly the term hipster refers to.....I have been thrown into confusion again

Hipster is a term used to describe trend-following kids who wear metal t-shirts but don't know the band.

I thought those were called posers.....and the whole Hipster thing was like a subculture kinda based on old school type things and that newer music that sounds a lot like psychedelic rock. But maybe there are different uses for the word it just seems most of what I've seen points to that description more or less.

I think it must be one or the other...

Hipsters like Indie Rock and wear obnoxious glasses.

Yes I've heard that as well, not sure which one it is or if it's a mixture of both...or if the hipsters just expanded to the vinyls and psychedelic rock when the indie rock started getting repetitive.
