Teen Gothic

so, i don't use tiktok but a friend of mine who does asked me if the "clean goth girl aesthetic" is acceptable in the goth culture or not. i know we're accepting and teach baby bats about us but theres a lot of hate revolving around them specifically. i told my friend that the way to become a goth is by listening to the music and explained it to her, her response was "i think these girls only wear black but don't listen to ur music."

help me determine this because i can't tell of they actually r interested in goth culture or they’re just posing for a "viral tiktok trend"

Plus size as well. Really want more plus size rep in the goth community.
