siouxsie in this video always reminded me of a scenario like, you're going over to a new friend's house for the first time and you meet his mom and it turns out his mom is a hot goth chick.

Does Swicthblade Symphony count as goth? I never quite knew how to classify them, but they ruled.

Goth music evolved into a genre known as darkwave, and Switchblade Symphony had a fair amount to do with that.

I'm an old rivethead, so I had a lot of overlap with the goth scene in my younger years. I've had some really fun times at goth parties, but there are also those times where I had to sit and listen to some seriously god awful poetry in a candle lit room that wreaked of dargon's blood incense for hours on end.

Going on year 18 of my goth phase and so far it’s pretty cool, fun music and black is always slimming. Never too late to come hang with us

Seriously though, self expression is fun? I like how I look and I feel more comfortable that way? Sometimes a gal wants to listen to The Danse Society and have a nice time dancing with friends?

I'd say they're both a huge step up from furries, but for some reason we're not making fun of them anymore. I guess dressing up like a teddy bear to gently caress is less weird than wearing black and listening to music.

I think people started giving furries a pass a few years ago when they started vehemently kicking their chuds out which gave them a better footing vs. a lot of other subcultures.

It's actually far from certain Odoacer was Gothic, it's more likely he was at least of mixed descent.

furries are majority lgbtq+, and as a result lovely people would use furry hate as a veiled form of bigotry against sexual minorities

We've collectively realized furies, goths, bronies, and other subcultures just want to be left alone to do their own thing and have moved on to making fun of the people wanting to do active harm to other human beings like the super rich, alt-right, and literal nazis.

I miss the times when what cartoon show someone liked was even on the radar of stuff worth caring about instead of the existential dread we live today.

This is so oddly timely, but I just saw a teenage/early twenties goth girl who also happened to have Down Syndrome, and it was just so excellent. I think because there's this massive cultural pressure on people with Down Syndrome to be a super sweet adorable lesson to us all about what True Love Really Is, and this girl was just a classic huffy goth who hates everyone and everything because we're so SO LAME. gently caress cultural pressure, be a grumpy goth all you drat like :unsmith:
