Ignorant? What makes me an individual is that I'm NOT ignorant.
I don't limit myself with labels, or picking one state of mind, musical taste, or look, and staying there, unlike you. What makes me an individual is having a mind open enough to not hate something without actually trying it first. Your mind is truly closed, and that is what makes YOU ignorant.

If you read that correctly, yes, that would imply that I was once a goth. I was also once an athlete, and I was also once normal. Right now, I'm all over the ****ing place.

Realize that everybody's life sucks, and stop complaining.. It'll make you feel better.

We all have our own way of life i have chosen mine as you have yours, i juat wish people would stop questioning the way i choose to live my life.

I'm not questioning anything. I know what it feels like, and if I could go back, I'd have slapped myself in the face with an iron.

And if you didn't want people to question you, you wouldn't do what you do. You love the attention.

You are calling me an attention seeker? ha ha dont make me laugh

That i am, being a goth is not about looks, i can't realy discribe it as i have nothing to compaire it to, people genraly hate you and they usaly try to pick fights with you thats about it realy, its just a differet way of life thats all.

If being a goth is not about looks then why do you have to look a certain way to be considered goth? And why do goths even bother looking a particular way, if it's "not about looks"

Oh, yes. That's what most of you are. Been there, done that.

I love making people laugh. Don't be scared of it.

Dam your logic Backfire, what i mean is its not just about looks.

Why is looks even a factor? Any life style that is dependant in any way on the looks of the people partaking in it is shallow and stupid.

Attention, man. When looks is a factor, it's about the attention.

why does anybody have to insult the way anyone lives there life...if looks is what concerns them then fine...if it's something else then fine as well...it's really nobody else's business

I agree with Fionnula

I don't care if looks concerns them, I'm just saying that it's shallow.

obviously you do care enough to argue about it

Maybe we are shallow but thats our way of life.

I'm with BF in this. it shouldnt matter what you look like to how ppl think and percieve you as a person.

Not arguing, questioning.

Glad you can admit that. Nice to hear my theory about goths backed up by an actual goth.

it shouldn't but more often than not it does...just becuase you are concerened with your looks dosen't mean you judge people or want people to judge you

No, it just means you're shallow.

So youre actually saying you believe that society accepts what people are like 'on the inside'? I find that unless you show your identity through what you wear, your music taste, what hobbies you have etc. no one notices you, no one gives a damn, and no one will ever get to know you.

'Ordinary' people are bland. They arent exciting and often people like me dont share interests with them. Thats why I dress differently, its cos I feel different. Its hard to explain, but its like conforming to what people think is nonconformist. You might be conforming, but at least your different. . . i dunno. Difficult to explain.
