Not only was I a completely sexless dweeb in high school, I had no idea anything like that was going on, but in retrospect I'm sure my school looked a lot like that one. Closest I think of to a goth jock was probably a girl who threw the discus etc for the track team. Edit: boy am I glad this is at the top of a page

Most kf those are probably romantic or semi-sexual yea - these days only 45% of American under 24s report losing their virginity in high school (its dropped about 15% last 10 years - I blame the Internet)

I’m fairly sure in the late 70s and 80s that look was “punk”. I graduated in 95 and recall grunge or punk as being your only real options at the time.

Well goth started out as a subgenre of punk. It didn't really become a distinct subculture of its own until the early 80s when the first goth nightclubs like the Batcave started popping up creating their own separate scene. However the music press had been describing gloomy music like the Doors and The Velvet Underground as "gothic rock" since the late 60s and that term was then used to describe Joy Division and similar bands a decade later. The first American goths appeared in the 80s but they called themselves deathrockers and never reached the mainstream in the same way as their contemporaries in Britain. :Gothsay: FreudianSlippers fucked around with this message at 14:48 on Apr 30, 2019 |

There was certainly a goth subculture club scene in the US in the 80s, it just wasn't much of a mainstream thing until after movies like Heathers and Beetlejuice in the late 80s. Obviously it really exploded in the 90s when it became a straight up cliche.

Even if this tracks romantic nonsexual contacts there should be a couple people who reported nothing. http://www.soc.duke.edu/~jmoody77/chains.pdf Reverse image search is your friend. They picked a rural high school where the kids had nothing to do but get drunk with each other outside school, and paid them $20 to take part, so they got a 90% response rate. And yea, they say that only 60% students report being sexually active, and 25% reported no romantic or sexual contacts. Nothingtoseehere fucked around with this message at 17:08 on Apr 30, 2019 |

Goth Jocks are just Glenn Danzig. Possibly also Henry Rollins if you're really willing to stretch your Goth Parameters.

hot take: antiquity will end when we stop living by laws written in antiquity but let's flesh out that dumb claim, whether to disprove or qualify it. how much has the global legal system changed since 'antiquity' 'ended'? like, napoleon's law derived from stuff written by lawyers trained in Beirut under the last Emperor who grew up speaking Latin and a big chunk of the world uses that. is common law old enough to be called antiquity? also i love this graphic i found in the common law wiki (whose History section doesn't really go before 1066, is that antiquity???). it contains All Of The Information

Common law in the sense of the English/American legal system really dates from medieval England IIRC. You could probably find some antecedents to that in whatever classical-era Germanic tribes were doing but frankly if you're taking it that far then we're all following the rules set down by whatever caveman figured out bashing your fellow tribesman's head in with a rock to take his wife and sweet cloak wasn't optimal for a smoothly functioning society.

Law is an emergent structure of human interaction pretty much the same everywhere if you deconstruct it to the point of abstraction European continental law is essentially from antiquity. English common law is newer however it got a heavy dose of antiquity slapped on top of it by the normans.

What’s an accessible intro to early North American cultures? Basically curious about everything from humans arriving up to Columbus (after that happens I feel like I have a much better handle on things from what I’ve read so far).
