Are you part of an Urban Tribe?

this is soo like me, and my views on the 'familial unit':

On a personal quest to find out why he is still single well into his thirties, Ethan Watters goes searching for answers, and along the way makes an extraordinary discovery about his generation.

While taking stock of his life, Watters realizes that he only has to look as far as his own social circle to see that he is not alone. Rather than settle down into traditional families, he and his friends have formed an Urban Tribe -- an intricate community of young people who live and work together in various combinations, form regular rituals, and provide the support of an extended family.

basically it goes on to say that gen-xers (like me ) look to friends for support, nuturing and motivation, they form very family like bonding but with judgement or expectation found in 'traditional families'.

as a matter of fact, in a strange way, I feel like the photoforum is one of my tribes - damn i don't know how I feel about chase being the chief though!
