I think you're thinking of one specific image of a goth. PVC suit, too much makeup and vampire teeth? Sure there are goths like that, but gothic is really anything from that setting. It doesn't even have to be black. One of my friends has a beautiful grass-green velvel cloak. She looks very beautiful and serene in it.
Black doesn't look unapproachable or violent. I'm always smiling and happy when I walk around. I only wear jeans, a t-shirt and a jacket, nothing extravagent. I say hi to every person I pass (unless it's really crowded – that's just too tricky ).
It's not mental difficulties they have. It's just a different idea. I can't understand people that need to drive fast and rev their engines like they can't hear them, which they normally can't over their car's sound system. I can't understand yuppies that think you're a low life for not dining in fancy restaraunts daily. I don't hate any of them, I just tend not to associate with them. Let them live their bizare lives (bizare to me). It doesn't bug me.
You're right that some do go out of their way to ward others off. I don't think much of them either. But a while ago, I was dressed in a business suit, walking through the city, there and was a woman coming the other way, dressed in black, shaved head, carrying a staff. She gave me a big friendly smile as we passed. If I wasn't in a rush that day, I would have stopped to chat with her.
I know you'll have whatever ideas you'll have, and I don't intend to make you like goths or any other group of people. I just don't see a need to hate them. Let me know if I've misunderstood you.
LOL! a grass green cloak now that is cool. i bet you dont say hello to everyone in the street because if you dress like a goth many would probably beat you up. and that woman dressed in black carrying a staff with a shaved head, thats just not natural. its like she dosent want any friends. she probably would have drunk your blood given half the chance or something worse. seriously people who dress like goths are (unfortunatley) mis-led. they are becoming outcast's in society and are suffering for it.
