I have no objection to them, I don't see them as lower people, but I just don't see the point in dressing up like 'Goths'.

'I look this way, because I want to be different, I want to be individual.'

Pah.

Come on, they all go around in groups, and look the same as each other,listen to only one kind of music, therefore is that so original and different? The answer of course is

No.

Fools. I saw a cluster of them the other day, and fair play to them the looked so very happy (*sarcasm*). What are they so dissatisfied with to look so glum all day long. Life aint that bad, I seem pretty ok most of the time, but I feel fine.

I saw a program on Marylin Mansun the other day, and there was the guy being interviewed with white eyes, red and blue make up, and hair worse than Einstein. Plus there were scars and cuts all over. He complained that people just don't trust him anymore. I wonder why you fool, you look like Satan's brother crossed with a clown.

Get a life, and stop acting all like sheep. Sorry but it has to be said.

I'm quite suprised by what some of you are saying. "I hate Goths". Hmmm hate is a very strong word. "Never judge a book by its cover". I'm willing to bet that most of the haters in here have'nt even spoken to a gothic person.

As for the "Why do they do it?"
Why do people get dressed up to go to clubs? To get noticed by the opposite sex. Why does a baby cry when it's hungry To get a drink of milk. Why do bands make / distribute demo tapes? To get signed.

Anyone in here that says they have never seeked attention would be a lier.

And in all fairness, what does it have to do with you what people look like?

Are Goths responsible for world hunger? Are all goths axe murderers? I think not. So why pursecute people for what they want to do or how they want to look, when it is completely harmless?

I've had this conversation quite a few times with some friends of mine. I say what most of you have said, and they say what Brad said - they're nice people, they're normal humans, they dress the way they want in the same way you dress the way you want etc...

The point stil remains - why do they feel they hve to stand out ad be different? A bid for attention or insercurities? Who knows.

Goths scare the hell out of me, someone should tell them that men dont wear makeup. There just societies freaks they say there being alternative but the fact is they all dress the same. I can't think how twisted and mad you would have to be to wanna dress like they do.

I was only walking down the High street the other day and I saw one, I had too look twice because I thought it was the freaking Crow.

A GOTH: the externalization of an inner angst and rebellion.

Most people would describe themselves as being slightly "rebellious".
Most would also admit to being a little confused with life, its meaning and our purpose in it.

So maybe we are all Goths on the 'inside'.

Someone famous once said (Dont ask me who) "People fear what they don't understand"

I guess this could apply here

Well as I say I have friends that are goths and they do smile, and go to the toilet and eat. Oh my god, you dont think they are human do you?? :)

"Or look atrractive?"

I go to a lot of festivals and the like and you do get some _very_ nice Gothic / skater / mosher girls. But to be fair these are very out weighed by the un atractive ones.

'I look this way, because I want to be different, I want to be individual.'

Is what somebody down there wrote. You take the comment to literally, they dont want to be different to everyone else in the world (For that is immpossible), they just want to rebel against what is the norm. You say that all Goths are the same, but if there are one or two goths walking down the street, they are different to everyone else, they stand out, they get noticed, and that is the effect they want to have.
