Teen Gothic

Basically I was walking through my campus and I saw a Goth and I was like “I really wanna tell them how cool they look” but I also didn’t wanna come off as weird. Is it weird?

I had this one recently.

I was out with my friend serving as a model for a shoot. I was dressed up in a very lacy and witchy kind of get up. We're taking a break from the shoot and go to a shop to get a drink. Whilst we're around there a random guy sees me and goes.

YOU LOOK GORGEOUS and then he… hugs me.

It was a side hug at least, but my god was it awkward it was one of those 'this happened too quickly for me to take an evasive maneuver to avoid hiim' moments.

Also on that same day I apparently had several small children convinced I was a witch. Good times.

How the HELL is the big poofy hair accomplished??

Full episode: https://youtu.be/4ZaMTwnA8SI Someone I know who used to live in Minneapolis told me about this show. It contains some of the dryest and most uncharismatic line deliveries I've seen, and I love every second of it. The full episode also features the deathrock band Mortica. It drags on a bit, but it's a fun watch, if not for the fashion and acting alone. I know nothing else about the actors or production of The Blood Club, so if anyone has more information on it, that would be great.

[decided to post this on here too]

For starters, I’ve dealt with stares and name-calling for the majority of my life due to the way I dress and present myself. I’ve had photos taken of me with nasty captions and people asking me to show them my wrist, and for the most part I’m use to it, but lately it’s seem to have gotten worse with people yelling it out loud in public for everyone to hear.

I was at the state fair and had a group of guys run up to me in line asking me if I made porn, telling me they liked my costume (“oh wait.. thats just how you look”) and laughing obnoxiously loud while people just looked away. It was really uncomfortable and anytime I ran into them again they’d just KEEP going. That same week me and my friends were harassed and followed in public again, getting called the “wrist cutters” “suicide squad” “hookers” followed by them asking for our socials over and over again.

So for those who also deal with this or have had similar experiences, how do you deal with it? Any advice is much appreciated.

When I went to the county fair with two of my other alt friends, most of the people there were middle and early high school kids. At least a dozen times we had boys come up to us laughing and asking for our snap. They also did that thing where they compliment you then walk away laughing. I even had one group of boys (maybe around 15) run up to me, take a selfie next to me, then run away laughing. I feel like ten years down the line they’ll be lying in their beds thinking about how cringe they were.
