I'm a Z (neither a Q or an R, and I *do* know what you're talking about.
I don't believe in the theory)

No. A subculture is a mold. To fit into something just because you what to
fit is what I don't like. And I resent having to fit into anything. Diversity
is greater if each person has his own culture (so if you want to take
subculture to the extreme (one per person), then that might be nice.
