Teen Gothic

Hi guys, i was wondering if theres anyone else that makes patches with bleach? I havent really seen anyone else do it and im starting to think i might make the patches look tacky!!!

Ik it's probably a weird question/request but since it's my bday (if it wasn't somewhat obvious by the title already) I was wondering if any birthday goth songs existed, so I came here to ask that question

Ok guys, this is not one of those posts, I'm just curious who else was always afraid to stand out. Back to high school a year ago I was so anxious to stand out even though I really wanted to, I really got into the whole goth culture towards the end of high school.

In my high school graduation picture I look completely normal lol I remember wanting to put on makeup and all that and I was just deathly afraid of standing out and that I would come out weird because there were no goths in my high school at least not as far as I know because I live in the Middle East and I regret a little that from this picture I will remember someone who was afraid express herself. There was a realy short period when I would put black eyeshadow until my mom noticed and told me it wasn't pretty so I stopped.

And I kind of want to make up for it and do what I want now but I just don't feel like I can yet. I guess my social anxiety prevents me from doing that. Also i don't want to imagine my mom's face if she sees an unusual outfit lol

Look, I appreciate (to a degree) that everyone and their grand, great n' great great grandchildren want to be "Goth" These days…..seeing the style and culture flourish as it has is enlightening and enjoyable….however…..can we PLEASE stop with these supposed Goth girls on Tic Tac n' whatnot posting these fit vids and whatever else they're doing….but using this modern shitty rap or pop garbage!?! What the Hell…..you can't even use Goth music?? While we're at it, let's answer another question I just saw posted here that actually inspired this very post…. "Can you still be Goth if you don't like the music?" The answer is a LOUD, resounding NO! The Goth culture is centered around it's……wait for it………..Music! (And fashion), which reflects the……..again………MUSIC! So, if you're dressing Goth and doing vids to music that had absolutely nothing to do with the culture then you, madam, or sir…..are simply a trend follower……plain and simple…… there hope I cleared that up….. Rock on……or not….

Want to chat about something which doesn't need it's own thread? Do it here!

Feel free to discuss music, fashion, events, DIY projects, etc. and anything relating to goth as long as it's in line with the subreddit rules.

I think there should be a rule blocking those type of posts here, and there should be a subreddit called something like r/newtogoth. That subreddit could be for people who are new to goth (baby bats) only, and could be for asking questions and learning.
