American culture
An "aloha shirt," popular in Hawaii and temperate western states



Apart from professional business attire, fashion in the US is `stylish and
informal.

While Americans' diverse cultural roots are reflected in their clothing,cowboy
hats and boots and leather motorcycle jackets are related to American style.

Blue jeans were popularized as work clothes in the 1850s, they are worn in every
state by people of all ages and social classes.

Blue jeans are arguably U.S. culture's primary contribution to global fashion.
Education in the United States is provided mainly by government, with control
and funding coming from three levels: federal, state, and local.

School attendance is mandatory and nearly universal at the elementary and high
school levels.

Among the country's adult population, over 85 percent have completed high
school and 27 percent have received a bachelor's degree or higher.
American attitudes towards drugs and alcoholic
                                 beverages have evolved considerably


In the 19th century, alcohol was readily available and consumed, and no laws
restricted the use of other drugs.


Since 1980, the trend has been toward greater restrictions on alcohol and drug use.

However, focus has been to criminalize behaviors related with alcohol, rather than
attempt to prohibit consumption.

New York was the first state to enact tough drunk-driving laws in 1980; since then
all other states have followed suit.
Television is one of the major mass media of the United States.
Ninety-seven percent of American households have at least one television set
and the majority of households have more than three.

The U.S. can be said to be the homeland of modern network television
American music can be heard all over the world.

Live music is especially popular with bands and solo artists.

American popular music also contains many styles of music that developed
in the United States and were popular music when they came up.

Examples are hip-hop, House Music, Techno Music, swing, jazz, blues,
country, R&B, Rock & Roll, Rock, Metal, pop and various others.
