That's... that's just a normal girl with pink hair...
Bitch, you're a jock who wears black, okay?
This picture is spot on, by the way.

When I was about 19 - 21 I was a hardcore goth guy and I can still remember a poser friend of mine asking if this one My Little Pony character was a good goth influence just because the character acted depressed all the time... I had to save face and laugh in private
Fucking posers
Goth has been adopted into the local white girl aesthetic. Its annoying.

Vampires are not goth.
Emo isn't goth either.
You're so right! Goth is just that, GOTH. It's an emotional thing that is then translated into fashion, but it can never be either or without the other. It's dominantly black with "maybe" a SUBTLE pop of color, but nothing more than that EVER.
GODs I hate how modern society & social media are ruining EVERYTHING "traditional" trying to claim them as something else or destroying their "origin" stories!!! 😠
It gets really hard to tell, and what about Vampire Counts and Sith Lords? :)
HEY!!! I THOUGHT IF I WORE A NOSE RING I WOULD BE GOTH!!! Now I have to reconfigure my whole lifes plan... It was going to be being a skating superstar, play golf with tiger woods then become goth boy by getting a nose ring... well that is not going to work now... :(
What’s not goth is judging people literally all these choices have goth IN THE NAME you’re just judge mental and want to be considered better than people or cooler. I’ve been goth my whole life and raised by a goth family and you literally just gave me cancer. Goth culture is about being different and unique not everyone is gonna fit into this tiny category that you made up biased in person opinion. Just let people be happy and move on
1. I agree, pink/purple stuff, that's just not Goth.
2. I disagree on this, every sub-culture also has a sporty version, so why not a Health Goth, or a Fit Goth?
3. I totally agree, Emos are a completely different sub-culture.
4. 100% true, piercing doesn't make them Goth.
5. True again, being a Goth is not just about lipstick and black clothes, it's about attitude too.
6. Okay, being a Goth doesn't mean that a girl has to look like a vampire, there are several other versions of Goth besides the Vamps (e. g Cyber Goths, Medieval Goths, Cabaret Goths, Victorian Goths etc).
My thoughts:
In my past life, I lived in a black ice castle.
I consider myself very Goth-esque. But I do go to the gym. I fast a lot too. I do that to recenter myself. I will be honest though Cotton candy pastel goths seem really odd to me. I mean Barbie wears the same colors as do my little ponys. Just saying.
hilarious because as a guy who was a goth before you was born i have to say mr manson just tapped into a money making game where he had to do nothing original to sucker in the new wave of fake goths just like you. one think to start having a go at normies with piercings but ffs are you any better. its all just bollox love
I laughed when i saw the part about emos. I feel like these days any normal person that sees a "edgy" kid they automatically assume they are emo. I've been called emo yet i dont resemble it at all nor do i even listen to their music 😂
you for got a Robot Zombie Goth
Disagree, to me goth is as the goths do. Pastel goth is just as legitimate as any other form. And at least three of my friends (other than myself) are either getting into or are into health and fitness. And the fact that their is a set of clothing lines directed towards this demographic is just nice.
Agreed.
Although perky goths get mixed up with pastel ones sometimes even though they are completely different.
Im really attracted to goth girls, unfortunately im quite the opposite of goth 😅
I’m not goth, but if a full on goth person were to be listening to Halsey or Billie Eilish just because they like them are they not allowed to be goth anymore?
i put eyeliner on once and wore black. it was the best i could do.
I feel like no subculture spends as much time talking about what it actually is as goth does. Is that only on the internet or do you guys talk about this at goth events, too?
there's a difference between goth and weird
It would've been complete if you added what goth really is. Good to know emo & goth are separate.
South Park seems to think goths and emos are the same thing lol
For someone who is unfairly judged on a regular basis you're being rather judgmental. I was unaware there was some form of standardization regarding what is and is not goth.
