Dres (:drɛs) or dresiarz (:drɛɕaʂ) (plural ''dresy'' or ''dresiarze'' ) is a term used in Poland to describe a specific subculture or class of young males. Dresiarze stereotypically live in urban tower blocks or tenement houses. They are usually portrayed as undereducated, unemployed, aggressive and anti-social.〔( Dialogi polityczne, ''O tym, dlaczego dresiarze noszą dresy. Rozważania nad antropologią odzieży sportowej w subkulturach chuligańskich'' )〕 The ''dresiarz'' phenomenon was first observed in the 1990s, and is sometimes compared to the British chav. It would later partially merge with the hooligan subcultures, and sometimes attributed to football hooligans. The term refers to tracksuits, which in Polish is ''dres''.〔 (Poradnik pedagogiczno - resocjalizacyjny: ) ''"(...) określenia odnoszą się do młodzieżowych subkultur dewiacyjnych, których powstanie jest efektem ubocznym procesów transformacji ustrojowej i zmian społeczno-politycznych zachodzących w naszym kraju w latach 90."''〕 ''Kark'' (pl. (ポーランド語:karki) - napes) and ''blocker'' (pl. (ポーランド語:blokersi) - block-people) are related but not synonymous terms; see below.〔 (Newsweek.pl, ''Dresiarz ściąga dres'' ) 2002-09-22〕 The term has a pejorative connotation in Polish mass-media〔 Dorota Masłowska's novel ''White and Red''〔''Wojna polsko-ruska pod flagą biało-czerwoną''. Warsaw 2002: Lampa i Iskra Boża, ISBN 83-86735-87-2 (UK edition: ''White and Red'', Atlantic Books, ISBN 1-84354-423-7; US edition: ''Snow White and Russian Red'', Grove Press, ISBN 0-8021-7001-3)〕 is one of the first books published featuring the ''dresiarz'' phenomenon. ''Dresy'' have been a theme of (usually critical) songs by Dezerter and Big Cyc. They are also popular negative characters in the comic strip Jeż Jerzy. ==Characteristics== The following traits are typically attributed to the ''dresiarz'' stereotype: * Taste in music usually encompassing Polish rap, techno or house genres. * Wearing tracksuits along with a hoodie and trainers; usually cheap counterfeit imitations of popular brands. * Shaved head. * Weight lifting and/or strength training in gyms. * Affection for automobiles — at first they were stereotypically associated with heavily modified Fiat 126p cars (often with iconic Pioneer sticker covering the rear window), but with the improvement of the Polish economy condition connected with the accession to the EU and the influx of imported used cars from the West they switched to older versions of BMW 3 and BMW 5 as well as Volkswagen Golf Mk2 and Opel Calibra, and recently their taste switched to Volkswagen Group automobiles, especially Audi. Apart from German cars, rice burners like Honda Civic also spawned some popularity due to the influence of the Fast&Furious franchise. * Keeping aggressive dog breeds, such as the Pit Bull or American Staffordshire Terrier as pets (sometimes used in dog fights). * Their female counterparts often have excessive solarium tans, bleached platinum blonde or pitch black dyed hair, and wear artificial nails, mini-skirts and crop tops.〔 (Wprost.pl: ''Blachary atakują'' )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dres」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
