"Mainstream is a Myth."The main reason that the term "mainstream" can be classified as mythical is in large part due to its dynamic implications. The term "mainstream" refers to what is fashionable and/or acceptable at a certain point in time. However, this notion is constantly changing, and as such the idea of something being "mainstream" changes with it. Moreover, who is to say what exactly is widely acceptable, especially considering the infinite array of viewpoints that may exist over any given topic? The answer is not a simple one, and may vary depending on the region that one may live in. Therefore, it is pure speculation that may lead to the localized definition of what mainstream really is.
