Teen Gothic

This is very random of me but I’m just starting to see it more and more over the years. Just a basic background I’m a brown asian guy in the UK, I’ve been alt since I was in the early years of high school (i didnt even know about the word or meaning of alt at that point) and over the years its just become fully my lifestyle.

But what I really don’t see a lot of is other brown alt people (any subculture), its every once in a blue moon. I go to shows and gigs and concerts but theres nobody else most of the time. I’m just wondering if anybody else notices this or maybe if you do fit this description, let me know your thoughts.

Maybe it’s cultural or religious restrictions (they were whats deterred me at least), or maybe I’m looking at it wrong? idk

Also this is not in any way an attack or blame on anyone or anything, it’s just something I want others opinions on. This is kinda UK specific also since I feel like theres a bigger proportion of brown alt ppl in other countries.

Thanks guys

people pretty much love the goth look with pale skin, would i look weird??

I am not going to whiten my face.

So yeah, brown goths decided to celebrate this day to support and celebrate our presence in goth community and to let people know we belong in the subculture 🙂 Goth subculture has always taken inspiration in aesthetics from desi, brown and Arab cultures, still brown people barely get any representation and often have to deal with r@cism and hate for following certain religions within goth community. So feel Free to support your favourite Brown, Desi, Arab and Middle eastern Goth artists and bands today<3

Check out these brown goth bands to celebrate Brown goth rep day~
