Well, "youth culture" often identifies people or ideas as being the leaders/originators of the general trends therein who are in actuality outsiders and free thinkers who come to their conclusions partly as a result of their separation. And of course, these people are turned into the archetypes of the "movements" they are associated with - Jim Morrison, Johnny Rotten etc.
