Have you ever watched MTV?
Now imagine you live in a culture (and there are many) where, outside the home, the women are covered from shoulder to toe and you see that sort of stuff beamed at you from the States. Then you see how the kids are hooked up by it and start adopting the styles and language. So if you're a bit older then, unlike in the West, you're not going to see it as some harmless pop channel for kids. You might get fired up and angry.
Then remember how cheap life is in some of these places. Where people lead a hand to mouth existance with little property to their name.
Is it really surprising that they fight back in the way they do?
