A truncation of "Genuine Vagabond," a term of acceptance among the subculture of crust punks, vagabonds and Off-Gridders who lived an itinerant lifestyle without bourgeois adventurism in the early 21st century. One of the contributing currents to Hitchhiker Culture.
Nowadays, "You're a Genuine" is a catchphrase in Traveler culture, popularized by Rabbit's Guide to North American Travel.
