I-Teddy Girls: Ingabe I-Teddy Girls Iyingxenye Ngempela Ye-Subculture?

Emuva ngawo-1950s, kwakunamaqembu amancane amantombazane ayezibheka njengama-Teddy Girls futhi ahlotshaniswa nesiko likaTeddy Boy, adansa nama-Teds ku-The Elephant and the Castle, aya nawo kumabhayisikobho nawo, futhi ngokusobala azijabulisa ngokungaqondile izindaba. mayelana nesimo sodlame sezigameko ezigqugquzelwa ngabafana bakaTeddy. Kodwa kunezizathu ezinhle zokuthi kungani ingakwazi ukukhetha emantombazaneni amaningi ekilasi elisebenzayo.

Nakuba amantombazane abamba iqhaza ekwenyukeni okuvamile kwemali etholwa yintsha ngeminyaka yawo-1950, amaholo amantombazane ayengekho phezulu njengeyabafana. Okubaluleke nakakhulu, ukwakheka kwezindleko zamantombazane kuzokwakhiwa ngendlela ehlukile kuneyabafana. Intombazane yesigaba sabasebenzi, nakuba isemsebenzini okwesikhashana, yagxila kakhulu ekhaya. Uchithe isikhathi esiningi ekhaya.

Nakuba i-Teddy Boys kungenzeka ukuthi ichithe isikhathi esiningi "ihlezi" endaweni, iphethini ye-Teddy Girls cishe yayihleleke kakhulu phakathi kokuhlala ekhaya.

Ngawo-1950, imakethe yezokungcebeleka yentsha kanye nokubonakaliswa kwayo okusebenzayo (amakhonsathi, amarekhodi, ama-pin-ups, omagazini) yathola, yiqiniso, ukunakwa okungaphezu kwesiko lentsha yangaphambi kwempi, futhi kokubili amantombazane nabafana babambe iqhaza kulokhu. Kodwa eminingi yale misebenzi ingenziwa kalula ngaphakathi kwendawo engokwesiko echazwe ngokwesiko yekhaya noma “isiko” lamantombazane eligxile kontanga—ikakhulukazi ekhaya, ukuvakashela umngane, noma emaphathini, ngaphandle kokuhlanganyela ku-riskier futhi kubi nakakhulu endleleni. ukuzulazula emigwaqweni noma i-cafe.

Lokhu kungasiholela ekucabangeni ukuthi ama-Teddy Girls ayekhona, kodwa kancane, noma okungenani amafomu amafomula kakhulu, ku-Teddy boy subculture: kodwa lokho, ngokulandela isikhundla esishiwo ngenhla, "ukubamba iqhaza" kweTeddy Girls kwasekelwa ziyahambisana, kodwa zihlukile kuma-subcultures. isampula. Ukusabela kwabaningi beTeddy Boys ekukhuleni kwe-rock 'n' phakathi nalesi sikhathi kwaba ukuthi bona ngokwabo baqala ukusebenza, uma abadlali be-ateur (ukukhuphuka kwamaqembu e-skiffle), amalungu e-Teddy Girls kule siko aba abalandeli.

Ama-Teddy Girls amaningi ashiya isikole eneminyaka engu-14 noma engu-15 ukuze asebenze njengabadayisi, onobhala, noma izisebenzi zomhlangano. Ngenxa yalesi sizathu, umbono womphakathi mayelana ne-Teddy Girls wawuyisiphukuphuku, ungafundile futhi ungenzi lutho.
