Now Viewing: gopnikTag type: General Representative of a particular subculture in Russia and other former Soviet republics which are known for their aggressive behaviour. They are usually portrayed as young men or women of lower-class suburbans coming from families of poor education and income, somewhat similar to British chavs. The stereotypical characteristics of gopniks include being often seen wearing tracksuits and squatting, a learned behavior attributed to Russian prison culture. Gopniks have raised infamy for the term by engaging in small robberies, normally doing this in large groups.
