One of the Most amazing things I`ve found out about Goth,is, the diversity of the
Beings/People/Creatures...
that make up the Whole.
You will find that Goths differ as much as Night and Day.

So some may agree with Me and yet, some will disagree with Me.

Please, if You must get all huffy and self-righteous Don`t send Me nasty letters.;P~

What Goth is to Me, is an Embrace of all things Dark and Unusual.

When I say Dark, I don`t mean Satanic.

Although there are some amongst Our midsts that do belive in "Ol' Belzabubba hisself".
I don`t personally believe in It.

The One thing that I do agree with is, that You can not "Become" Goth.
You are either Born with Gothic tendencies or You are not.
(I belive it is the same with Paganism also.)

I don`t like being "Pigeon Holed" in anything.
Especially, Being Labled (unless it`s a very diverse lable. Such as Goth, Pagan, and so on.)
So here are a few things that , hopefully, will make You think about What Being Goth really is.....
(or isn`t...)



Reasons Why you may not Be A Goth.

~~Just because You wear Black clothes all the time, that dosen`t make You Goth...
(example: Johnny Cash!)

~~If You think Marilyn Manson is a God...
(Come on folks... He`s even said that He`s not a Goth!)

~~If going out and Bashing some heads in, is great Fun to You...
(Kido You missed it by about a decade...You`re a PUNK!)

~~If You listen to Gothic Music...That dosen`t necessarily make You Goth.
(It helps though.) ;-}

~~If You mope around and all You think about is Death...
(but, then again You may be a Mopey Goth!)



Goth is how One lives Ones Life (Or lack of!).
The Clothes, the Music, the Makeup...
They are all just symtoms of the disease...
If I were to wear a Firemans Uniform, Would that instantly make Me a Fireman?
No! Just because You were Gothic Style clothing dosen`t make You Goth.
It`s what is inside You that makes You Goth or whatever You are.
If You would like a More detailed discription of what Goth is ...
Go see Azhram`s page Goth with A Sledgehammer.
I found it very insightfull and amusing...
But Be forewarned!!!!
Azhram swings a wicked Goth-hammer!
