It seems to me that within the fixed community, the hipsters are the ones who ride fixed, brakeless because it's cool, but may not posess the actual skill to ride with no brakes. They are the people who ride some weird ratio to get more attention. But to say that anyone wearing tight pants, a white belt, and a tight sweater is a hipster, is basically stereotyping about 50% of my school, or any other art school as a huge hipster community. It seems that hipster now-a-days is just another word for poseur or the kid you see in those videos they show you in 5th grade that is smoking to be cool.
